Hello ! In this episode you can see how I repair a BMW f48 X1 with a problem with the gear selector, due to a small spring that breaks the selector no longer communicates with the car the parking position, and because of this there is an error message in dashboard in which warns you to make sure the vehicle is secure and does not go downhill :) . Officially for this problem the gear selector is replaced, but unofficially it can be repaired
The white ''Stuff'' that I'm using is Grease "Molykote EM-60L"

I just got this done following the DIY here. Couple of things to note: - The shifter needs to be in N position to unhook it, if it is in P, you cannot remove it. - The steel tube that is embedded into the plastic to hold the spring is very difficult to remove. - The trim underneath the glovebox needs to be installed first prior to installing the panel with the speaker underneath the glovebox. Thanks for posting this video! Cheers..

Thanks sooooo much! Truthfully, there were a few times where I started to get panicky and thought “oh, God, I’m destroying my car… What compelled me to try this” but I pushed forward and it all worked out just fine! Thank you so much for posting these instructions. I’m so grateful for that! One thing I will add… When you are putting the assembly back together after replacing the spring… There is a point where you have to put the little black plastic nub in through the metal ring when you insert the cable back into the assembly. I had trouble finding where to put it until I realized that the shifter needs to be in the right position or else the ring won’t match up properly with the plastic part that it’s supposed to be fastened to. So, if you have trouble with that part, try pushing down the plunger and adjusting the shifter position until it exposes that plastic ring. ❤

Haw giù di It the reset of errore?

@neila5326 Год назад

@@antanivolante5557 the error cleared on its own in my vehicle. There is a small magnet inside the white plastic lever. If this magnet returns to the correct location (the repaired spring should push it to the correct location) then the error will not display. A few months later the error returns on my vehicle (especially in cold weather) I think the spring needs to be very strong to return the magnet to the correct location.

I have a 2017 X1 diesel and I've been carrying this issue for a couple of months now. Checked the fault codes with my reader and surprise surprise I got 420106. After reading numerous forums online it was pretty obvious that the spring inside the selector was the issue. Not wanting to take it to BMW I found your video which I have to say is outstanding!!! Watched it once, headed to my car, did the mod and hey presto!!! Issue is now fixed! Thanks for the very detailed, high quality video. You saved me a couple of thousand dollars. I see you can also buy replacement springs online too. I might replace next time this happens.

@eeibmc 3 месяца назад

Excellent instructions Ovidiu! Took me appprox 2.5 - 3 hours from start to finish (not rushing), followed the video at every step, fixed the fault, everything went smoothly, there was no 'last screw jammed', 'missing step', 'broke something in process' or similar, Murphy must have been causing problems to some other unlucky people that morning. Now a month post the fix, all works fine, like it never happened. Can't be more thankful. Mulţumesc mult!

@bowman8884 Год назад

Just did this repair after watching the video, very straightforward once you have the confidence from watching this video. My F48 did not have any wiring in the centre armrest and some of the wiring routing was a bit different, take some photos as you take it apart and it should all go smoothly. Very well produced tutorial, saved me £1000 just for changing a £6 spring and took less than 3 hours.

THANK YOU for this video! You’re step by step instructions on removing the console were exactly what I needed. I did a CarPlay retro fit using an MMI box and I needed to access the bundle of cables under the console because there was no slack to remove the head unit. I followed your video and I had no issues removing the console or putting it back. You really helped me save money by not taking the car to an audio installer for something I was able to do on my own. Thank you thank you thank you !!!!

@DDGXMUSIC 11 месяцев назад

19th August 2023. Have just completed this repair and so so pleased. Thank you so much for the great instructions. My tips would be that aligning the gear selector to remove the plastic lug from underneath the unit is more easily done with two people. Also I did not remove the gear knob or gaiter. If you are careful it is possible to leave in place. When I disassembled the gear selector unit I taped a small transparent plastic bag around the knob to ensure it didn't get grease or dirt on it during the the repair. I also found it useful to label each wire as I unplugged it. Perhaps ott but I also bagged up each group of nuts or screws with a description of where it came from. I bought a £10 trim removal kit which was a god send too. I should add that i did not disconnect the battery. During the fix at one point when I closed or opened a door a warning began chiming relating to the car not being in park (this was once gear selector was unplugged). If you leave the car and close the doors the chiming will eventually stop. But for me the car would not lock while this warning was present. If u tried to lock with the fob the horn beeped twice. This chiming/warning went away once I plugged the gear selector back in. Don't rush. Follow the instructions here and this is a very do able fix.

@peterbaker4721 2 года назад

I have an early build uk F48 and recently followed your video. I found that it wasn't necessary to remove the brass fulcrum bearing out of the nylon pawl in order to reinsert the spring! By carefully altering the old spring as shown in your video (by taking one complete turn out of the coil) it was possible to rethread the spring back into the pawl and then refix the pawl back into the gear change housing. Job done, no error codes but all the service data and trip readings lost! Thanks for your video

@philiphare5616 2 года назад

A really excellent tutorial video. I repaired mine on my 2016 F48 after driving around with the fault for 6 months or so. I must say after much trepidation about me doing it, messing it up and ending up with an even bigger repair bill this video gave me the confidence to have a go myself. My BMW main dealer wanted £1200 plus VAT to do the work, accepting that they’d replace the whole gear selector (assuming they now fit a thicker spring as the fault seems so wide spread and it wouldn’t fail again ) and independent BMW specialists didn’t seem keen. The MOT garage did say that it wasn’t and MOT fail but it’s probably fair to say that a fault code would affect the resale/ PX value to the tune of the cost of repair. A couple of observations. 1. I didn’t take the gear selector off as the console can be lifted off with any problems. 2. My error code cleared its self once I started the vehicle after reassembly. 3. I’m more than slightly dubious about how long the repair to the already proven inadequate spring will last. I have contacted a number of engineering firms who have been helpful in identifying the size of ‘torsion spring’ required but most have minimum orders of £30 - 50. I guess if it breaks again I’ll go down this route. Thanks for a really helpful video Phil

BMW dealers would just instal a whole new shifter. The price for the shifter and labour is around $3000.Much better to get handy and DIY. There must be someplace that sells a stronger spring. You would have thought BMW would have solved this issue it has been going on since 2012 and is still happening in the 2017 BMW X1s.Same transmission shifter as other BMWs and the Mini. Why does BMW use so much plastic in their vehicle parts?

Thank you so so much for creating this video and sharing it with everyone. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I did this yesterday and have never done anything like this but followed your video step by step and kept pausing and playing. I managed to do it and the fault is now fixed. I opted to by a pack of the springs from eBay for £5 instead of fixing the one I already have. Interestingly the design of the gold colour pin where the spring goes was a completely different design to yours and it meant you didn’t have to push it out to change the spring which was good. I found putting it all back together in the car a bit trickier as it was a bit harder to see with the camera angle to when you took it all apart but I got there in the end. Thanks so so much! I was so frustrated about this and it’s such a common fault that BMW really need to take some responsibility and get it sorted. Quotes of around £2000 to have this fixed so thank you for saving me from that. My top tip is: Have all your tools available before you begin, you can use the boot/trunk of the car as a nice flat work space. Take your time - do it on a day where there is not a time limit. Take breaks in between 👌🏼 Don’t panic - when you get half way through you start to think “oh my god, I am ruining my car” just carry on with the video and you will see how you get there. Make sure it’s a dry day or you have somewhere indoors Alarm: you may at one point get an alarm/notification going off saying about parking break failure or that the car is not in park and it will keep dinging. Ignore it and it will stop after a while. A few mins I found. But it will do it again if you open/close the doors fyi 😅 IMPORTANT: Get yourself some paper and a pen and some tape and make a note on each part of the car (apart from the obvious) of where each panel/piece comes from and any notes about what order to put back on. It really helped me. Also for example (Longer screws) as there is a piece with longer T20 screws so helps to know which it is 👍 I genuinely feel so pleased that I have done this and saved all that money and would recommend to give this a go rather than getting ripped off.

Followed your video and everything worked out excellent!! Thank you so much for sharing, I purchased a replacement spring on aliexpress and had to pay for bimmerlink to clear the ecu, but overall still 20 times cheaper than what the dealer would have charged! It took me 2-3 hours in total. As a tip, make sure you have everything before you start (especially a way to clear error codes).

What a helpful video. Still, I was sceptical of my ability initially but decided to take the plunge after BMW wanted an arm and a leg to replace the shifter. Coincidentally (or maybe not) the same thing happened to our previous 218i Active Tourer which they fixed under warranty. I also own a Mini Clubman with the same shifter. Ouch. You do need to be a little brave and patient taking this on (with the tools at hand that he uses in the video) but after a few hours I triumphed. Amazing feeling 😀 Oh, that spring was wayyyyyyy smaller than I expected. 😂 Thank you!

Thank you very much for this great video. I managed to repair the gear selector failure by myself thanks to it. From today you have a new follower. I just want to tell you that it has lacked a little concreteness when disconnecting all the connectors. Otherwise, perfect. I would like to add that after disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it, I didn't have to erase any error code from the memory...it's strange...the error just went away.

@MOvidiu 2 года назад

you are an expert. I have another question for you. My x1 does not have clima, just aircondition. The point is that there is no airflow in the rear seats ,in the middle. just for the legs. you think that it is possible to add this central air flow panel and have rear heating in the middle?

I think I'm ready to try this fix on my 2017 X1. While that glovebox side panel is removed i might as well change my cabin filter too. What is the white stuff and spray you're using during reassembly and the purpose? White grease to prevent squeaks and contact cleaner on the connections?

I was able to get the rear side screw mentioned below removed by using a right angle torx. I definitely have different seats in my US 2017 X1 BMW making it very difficult to get the project started. Most of the remainder of the video followed my car, except for a second bracket over the heating tube but that is easily to remove. I found the most important issue is the car needs to be in neutral to locate the removal point for the shifter cable l on the bottom of the shifter - when in Park, the pin is inside the shifter and can not be released. What I didn't know until later was that the yellow plunger on the side of the shifter will allow it to change gears. I wasted time getting the car started and changing gears that way. There is also a plug in the front of the shifter that the video doesn't mention at least not that I caught, luckily, I took lots of pictures as others have suggested which really helped on re-assembly. If it's in the video, it went to fast for me to catch it. I'm over 70 and don't like working on cars anymore, I don't like the dealer trying to rip me off even more, so with this video and a $5 spring I thought I would give it a go. With lots of time which I have plenty of being retired, the car is fixed. Thanks a bunch!

okay, thought this might work. But in minute 4:29 OF VID shows the removal of two screws on the side panel in center consol - did you have the passenger seat removed?? Because my seat on X1 sits right in the way of these screws no matter how far it is moved forward or back? Help, how the heck can you get out them to remove ..can't even imagine trying to get them back in.
