Mine exhibited this ever since I owned it. Every time it was “fixed” or thought it was fixed, it would come back.

hi all, new to this forum, not new to forums... this OP has the same type of issue I am chasing. N55 I sent this to my SA and they sent me a quote of about $2500+tax to look over the items listed... does that sound about what you put into your service (to the OP) seemed steep but IDK, Ive already been in twice and sank $500 into nothing. My SA was leaning towards checking the cam lobes (for $2000) has anyone heard of that? TIA Ed |

If you can, I believe the protools app from Bimmergeeks can be used to reset the tcu adaptations. This would come out to a lot less than $2,500, or even $500. It's just going to take a bit of research, time, and a couple of purchases from you. Or you can have an independent mechanic do this for you. I imagine they would just charge a couple hours for the programming. |

When I get a chance, I'll see if I can locate the service work order to see how many labor hours was charged to BMW. |

Thanks for the replies !
I guess the first bits are code but what about this? BLED THE ENTIRE COOLING LINES. RAN "GEARBOX ADAPTATION TEST PLAN" AND RE ADJUSTED BOTH TORQUE CHARACTERISTIC AND ALSO TRANSMISSION SLIPPING POINT. is that code or transmission work Last edited by ivangene; 07-12-2019 at 12:26 PM.. |

They wanted to do all that BS to mine as well but since it was no longer under warranty I passed. On a whim I flashed it to MHD Stage 0 and the issue has been 98% resolved ever since. Total cost of the cable and software was like $100. I did have the intention of modding and going to Stage 2 or 2+ but just haven't gotten around to it.

Gearbox adaptation test plan I think is what you want to focus on. That is done on the coding side.

2500 is incredibly insane. An MHD tune fixed my issues as well.

I had the same crap going on with my DCT for past year. Took it in to an indy mechanic and I requested reset of anything related to the transmission. He said no problem. It took him about 10 minutes total - done in the parking lot. At one point during the reset you could hear the transmission rapidly changing gears for about 20 seconds. It was pretty cool.
Anyway, the car has ran perfect ever since, even with the AC on. Little background - my problems started at about 45k miles. The car has PPK on it. New battery. Plugs changed at 46k. Coincidently, my other DCT 135is is starting to run like crap and it has 45k miles on it. |

Note, this is all mute if you have a 2013, you'll need to have your DME unlocked first if you have a 2013. By the way, aren't you going to plug your sons umbrellas? |

If you're really looking to just fix the DCT Lag issue though, I think the ProTool App by BimmerGeeks along with their K+ DCAN cable will get you there. I want to say MHD is resetting some but not all transmission adaptations when you flash, but ProTool might be a better solution for actual DCT resetting (as well as a ton of other coding/changes). Note, I don't work for BimmerGeeks, nor do I even use their tools yet (except the cable I bought from them) but it seems everyone that's used their stuff is pretty happy with their stuff.

FYI. Had the adaptations reset again. The car was operating fine in January. But when I got my new daily driver, I didn't drive the 1 much. I put on maybe 2000 miles since then and the idle instability with the A/C on with some minor lurching returned. It seems after a certain number of miles, this procedure needs to be done again.
I looked at my old work order and I've put on about 50k miles since the adaptations were first done. |

I looked at your other thread and you mention you're having issues with the heat on. Do you have the A/C button activated with the heat? The issue from what I can tell is when the A/C compressor is requested that the problems occur. I get none of the symptoms with the A/C button off even now. |
