My BMW F10 535i shutoff in the middle of Chicago traffic and would not go into neutral. This is some information I found on the BMW Electronic Emergency Parking Release, by BMW Group.
After watching, please comment below what BMW you own and if these steps helped your non-starting vehicle get into neutral position electronically. Thanks!

I can say that this worked for me. I hit the brake, started the car. I pressed the unlock button and shifted to neutral for four seconds. Then I heard the gear shift and I pushed the car where it needed to be. It was a 2011 740i. I appreciate your video dude.

@EuroAutoEnthusiast Год назад

Thanks for sharing your feedback 👊🏽💯

Nothing special. This is how it works. You shifter to neutral and it goes to neutral. What's special ?

Why every one doesn’t know this method! If i saw your video 2 days earlier it will save me money and time… most of guys told me the mechanical way but no one knew it electronically.

@EuroAutoEnthusiast Год назад

@andrewwynn 27 дней назад

This method for when the car will not start but has power and can crank. I don't know if the engine has to be actively turning over or will work in case of a bad starter. You do have to go through the motion of trying to start. Everybody with this situation should know where to use 5mm hex to manually disengage the neutral under the car in case of completely dead battery etc.

@toddderek6650 Год назад

I have a 2008 BMW 550i and follow your instructions to the tee several times and it does. It work. When pushing the start button the car does not start. The lights flash on the dashboard and they toggle on/off with each push of the start button. I cannot get it into neutral. So lame. Now I’m stuck. This will just magically start some other day.

@EuroAutoEnthusiast Год назад

Thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re understanding that models do vary with this process, .ie F20 3 series. Have you confirmed that your starter engages? That’s what’s highlighted as the key component that must work.

@monneybabee Год назад

I had this problem w 07 530i, dead, hazards came on nothing else. 40 min of searching found best info. Popped the case off the shifter underneath at top right there is a release which allowed me to shift without any power. May not be for all and electric shifter May very but easy to do very difficult to find info. I figured I’d share

@EuroAutoEnthusiast Год назад

Thanks for sharing! Yes this can be found in some automatics and DCTs. However, BMW didn’t do it this way for all models and years.

Changed about 2010-11. No under shift release on my '11.

I owe a few beers homie! My 740 has been taking up a driveway spot for a year, since i got my new whip. Not to mention the transmission is blow. Just did this and pushed it all the way up the long driveway! This is the ONLY thing that worked.

Hey, i have a 2016 BMW x4, when i tried this, foot on the brake, hit start, press in unlock, the shifter would not come out of " Park. "

@EuroAutoEnthusiast 24 дня назад

Try it without pressing the brake. The idea is to “actuate” the starter if your engine can’t turn over.

@iniinithan5612 Год назад

Yes it works

@kaiyahaguilar4235 4 месяца назад

But does this work if the vehicle won’t start?? 2012 BMW x5 will not start and will not go into neutral at all

@EuroAutoEnthusiast 4 месяца назад

The technique is designed to work in no-start situations, but you must have power and BMW states the starter must engage/work. Try this one I just found recently 👉🏽ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-37GJos49AdM.htmlsi=ARuhind1CC-yC88F at 2 min 13 sec mark (time code here will not connect to his video).

Hopefully someone can confirm…an owner with an 08 550 says they were NOT successful with this method.

@mariacoronado6200 Год назад

I have a 2013 f30 m3 series and it your technique didn't work maybe because my emergency brake is a normal one or perhaps i was doing it wrong....

@EuroAutoEnthusiast Год назад

Assuming by normal you’re saying manual hand brake-I’m not sure if that matters. Someone with an F30 mentioned that they were successful with the steps.

@BEATSBYDEPTH 10 месяцев назад

@fcord3025 Год назад

2018 M5 this only works while car is running. brake and hold the gear shifter in neutral for 5 seconds and release open door and push or let the car roll. did not work when engine not running

@tahmidislam2723 Год назад

For the F90 and also F10 M5’s it wouldn’t, you have to go underneath the car and flick it into neutral manually if the car doesn’t start

Because I don’t own an X7 to test the theory, I can’t confirm this. Checking X7 specific forums and internet searches is where I’d start. Feel free to share your findings here to help other X7 owners!

@nonyabisnas Год назад

I have an F10 550i, does not crank, this didn't work for me

@EuroAutoEnthusiast Год назад

The technical bulletin highlights that the starter motor “turns”, more specifically is installed in the car, has power, engages, and turns when you press the start button. Is this the case for you?

@zunaids4036 Год назад

hi. I have a bmw f30 328i. I'm getting error codes. P0012, p0015, P0172 any idea what parts needs to be changed?

@EuroAutoEnthusiast Год назад

I don’t own an F30, but generic codes like these from off the shelf readers will have you “repair hunting” on any chassis. Depending on your confidence level, my suggestion is use ISTA+, Bimmerlink (one-time fee app) with a Bluetooth module - I use VeePeak *amzn.to/3h0JWNH - bootmod3, or iCarly (subscription-based app) to name a few. These codes pinpoints specific modules, banks, parts, etc. Otherwise, do more research on the generic “P” codes and take a look through F30 forums to see what they’ve done.

@zunaids4036 Год назад

@@EuroAutoEnthusiast thanks for your reply. I used bimmerlink and got the following codes. 130308, 120408, 133B04, 133E10, 130108

This will not work if the engine doesn’t start , simply pressing the start button putting the car in accessory mode does absolutely nothing, it will only work if the engine starts.

Hi I recently bought a 2012 bmw 750I and it won’t go in to park at all. It says “Park position "P" not selected. Vehicle may roll. It is not possible to lock vehicle from outside.” Any ideas how I can put it in park? Ever other gear works. I can turn it on go in drive and reverse just fine I just have to leave it in Neutral and the park break and just be fine but I would like to be able to put it in park and not have to worry about it

From my Navy days working on F/A-18s, exact sequences are imperative because people can be seriously injured or worse due to mistakenly touching/hitting switches. You know…for bombs. In other words, it’s probably a bit more involved for safety reasons and safety almost always creates a level of inconvenience . Even if that’s not the case, I respect the thought process of it.
