Shifting issues

tranquility · 09-15-2016, 05:14 PM

Have DCT and this happened twice so far (mind you in 6 yrs of driving) when I press the gas aggressively from a stop, even though I'm in D reg mode, it somehow switches to M1 and gets stuck in 1st until I shift. The shifter was not pushed to the side and remained straight.

Obviously, a software prb but wondering if anyone has any exp?

Man how did you manage to get DCT AND the N54 engine stuffed in an E85 Z4?

Yeah...i'm almost certain I'm not the one who misread anything.

Still boggles my mind how E89 people keeps posting HERE. E85 Z4s have been out of production since 2008.

Oh crap, I was using my smartphone. Still, it's the general Z4 forum. Anyway, onto the E89 subforum.

If that's your logic, then you shouldn't be posting here either.

At least you didn't spell "shifting" wrong. I'll give you that.
