I tried playing with gas pedal in N and P, and found something interesting. If you press gas pedal slightly(2k-ish), RPM will go up, and then come down to 1k in about 2 seconds. Once you go over 3-4k rpm, it doesn't seem to come down. Anyone wanna try this with your F10 and see if it's same? I don't think my 1series before did this. This might be related to uneven gas pedal response with F10.

Just got back from the dealer.Very disappointing. They said that due to my aftermarket HID xenon lights installed on my fogs and low beams, there were numerous under voltage faults set causing the drive train fault. UNBELIEVABLE !!!
Spoke to the Service manager and it was just like talking to a wall. He basically just repeated what was written on the service invoice. Just thought I'd let you guys know since I promised to give you an update when I got the car back. |

Did you tell them to turn off the lights and retest

I too have noticed major sluggishness from a stop in normal mode, like many on here.
Have experimented a bit. In sport mode seems to be much less of a problem. More tellingly: If I go to manual shift mode and drop to first gear there's NO hesitation. From manual in second gear it's awful. So I think it's likely the transmission going to second gear when it shouldn't and expect that this could be corrected with re-programming by BMW. Thoughts?

This is all fixable through software and the more people complain to BMW, the more likely they will fix it. Write them an e-mail on their Website, call the dealer you bought the car from. If and when it does come out, I would not be surprised to see a form that we would have to sign, agreeing to some lower overall gas mileage. I still remain hopeful that they are working on an update. So far all I have seen is that the Dealer re-sets the transmission to the learning routine. Or many of us have been driving in "DS" mode, which lenghtens that shift point a bit. |

For me, hesitation and jerking from a stop definitely was fixed by SIB 12 22 10. Details can be found at http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...499303&page=15. When I first got the car back, it had a new problem. I think torque converter was not locking up as it supposed to. Felt like the slush box of my old Lexus. Gas mileage was a bit lower too. Finally got it fixed. The only information I could get out of the dealer was adaptation reset.

Glad I found this thread. I thought it was just me and not knowing how to drive a BMW. My 2011 528i has this same hesitation when driving off from a dead stop or slow roll.
It has become aggravating. My wife looked at me rather funny the other day when I almost gave her a whiplash when taking off from a STOP sign. At least I know it seems to be a common problem and there may be fixes out there for it. |

Noticed Same Issue
Folks,
I brought my 3 series in for numerous recalls and they gave me an 11 528i loaner. I loved the exterior looks and the finish of the interior. It also rides with that BMW feel (firm, composed, but not harsh) that I fell in love with 15 years ago. With that said, I had the same issues spoke of throughout this thread. I simply could not achieve a smooth takeoff in stop and go traffic. Every other scenario seemed fine. The throttle tip in has an artificial feel to it and is non-linear. You have two options from a stop or a slow roll- give it some gas and the car storms ahead or feather it and it lurches while immediately going for second gear. In many situations, especially when driving conservatively, it would be better for the trans to start from second gear which should allow for a considerably smoother launch. The other option is to have the vehicle hold first a bit longer before shifting but I imagine that would be a detriment to fuel economy. It ruined what was otherwise a very positive experience with an incredible machine. It is simply not acceptable and I hope it gets sorted out. The electronic "aids" seem to be impeding a heck of a nice drive. |

I've just read through all 8 pages of this forum. I know there's something wrong with my car because it doesn't feel like the experience I should be expecting. When I start on regular D mode, the car feels so slow and I feel like I'd be sucking more gas if I kept it like this. When I put it on Sport mode, the driving from stop is much better, yet I do feel this lag too (which I assumed was the "turbo lag"). The problem I feel is when braking. Especially during traffic time, braking is a horrible experience. I mean I had an IS350 Lexus and I kept that thing in "sport" ECT power mode too but it didn't have such a crazy jerking feeling in stop and go traffic. At first I thought it was the engine, downshifting as I'm braking to slow my car down. But in stop and go traffic, my car is already slow! Wow, I just realized this while typing this up...now I'm pretty sure I have a problem!

New to forum. Test drove a 535ix and noticed the lack of response (lag) when accellerating from a stop cited here. Was a bit of a let down, as I liked everything else about the car.
Just curious, does the 550ix have the same issues? |

I know what you mean... I have the same thing. When i lift my foot off the gas pedal, the car will slow down on it's own by downshifting 3dr, 2nd, 1st... it actually does feel like the car is breaking on it's own - but of course it's all gears, no breaks. In the end I would just have to touch the break to put the car in full stop. I think this is related to the same transmission issue causing jerking and hesitation. For jerking and hesitation my dealer did a throttle reset the first time, and it made everything smooth for about a week. After that it was back as it was. The second time BMW recommended the "latest software update for the transmission/acceleration delay issue released by BMW version ISTA/P 2.41.1" as they put it. My dealer insalled it. This also made things very smooth for about 3 days, then the jerking hesitation came back worst than before. Still working with the dealer to find a fix. to be continued... |

After so many sessions: they've resolved the jolting problem by reprgramming the EGS. Still I can feel very, very soft jolts when the gear shifts. The problem now, is that when sometimes I try to step on the accelerator after taking a turn , the car does not respond only after like 3-4 seconds and the car feels in a higher gear. this problem was there already but overshadowed by the jolting. :S

Still, this is the first week. The jolting is gone but I still think this is only one symptom being relieved while the real problem is not solved, yet. Now, instead of feeling the jolts, I feel delay between the accelerator and the engine.
It is really annoying, this whole thing and I had thoughts of selling the car which even then, I don't feel right selling a broken car to someone else. :S |
