Another BMW fail😂😁👨‍🔧  

😁👍

i was going to comment this and saw you did it :) you know BMW. awesome

@@rideit-hardly yes sir!!!

I had the same problem, tried disconnecting the battery and didn’t solve the issue. The problem was a bad Gear Shift Module. $1800 fix from dealer…my local German machine did the fix for $500

That would show a sign on the dash😉

@@Zeiten Yes. You're right. Just tested. An open door message appears. Probably the first time I did not pay such attention to it, because the media was configured in German.

Yup, had the same Stopped engine, opened and closed door (it wasn’t fully closed) and satrted. Everything was great after

I thought the same thing

Wrong, gear selector switch interlock e failed that’s it

Bro 6k in 3 months for me I’m done

Not in this case, interlock e faulty, gear selector switch must be replaced

Try gear selector switch first, that’s what was faulty in that case, worth a try although transmission issue could be the reason for the same symptoms

Believe it or not this problem is usually caused by 4 small rubber valves . One is about the size of your pinky and the other is about an inch and a half long. They are very easy to replace if your mechanic is not dishonest. I replaced them in my underground parking spot and they cost less than $40. You'll have to replace your tranny fluid as well which is a little harder since the filler hole is located under the tranny at the very bottom. It has to be done with a pump. A cheap battery operated one is best.

​@Zeiten the selector switch is almost NEVER the problem. The problem is that bmw says the tranny fluid is lifetime and it's not. 60k is the best you can expect from it then it's problems if it's not changed.

Mine was the gear selection switch. $500 repair with my local German mechanic. Dealer part price (excluding labour) was $1,800.

🤦‍♂️

If the door is open the car will just put itself into park but it will remain in gear

@@jussayinmipeece1069 how can it put it into park if it’s in gear. My old X5 use to go from drive to park if door was open.

😂😂😂😂

Faulty gear selector switch, replace the whole thing

Will I need to do any kind of coding or reprogramming after replacing it?.

@lawdeastsystem9 usually not necessary

Nope, interlock e faulty, whole gear selector switch must be replaced

​@Zeiten How much is a problem like this to fix typically?

A mean destory

😂 what? Gear selector switch is the issue

If you want a boring ass car… sure.

😂 let’s shoot other random words😂😂

Hahahahaha @zeiten your comment made me LOL

Not it, interlock e has failed so gear selector switch assembly had to be replaced only then gears could be engaged, don’t assume people are idiots🤦‍♂️
