POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
M3 WITH DCT AUTOMATED MANUAL TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT WHEN AT LOWER SPEEDS GOING AROUND CORNERS. THERE IS A LONG DELAY BEFORE IT SHIFTS SO ITS DANGEROUS WHEN MERGING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. THE CAR HAS PERFORMED THIS WAY SINCE PURCHASED AND MULTIPLE SOFTWARE REPROGRAMMING HAS NOT REMEDIED. WHEN TURNING THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL MAKES A GRINDING NOISE. IT STARTED AT ABOUT 1200 MILES AND CONTINUES AT 5000 MILES. THE DEALER PUT FLUID IN TO REMEDY AND SAID TO WAIT 300-500 MILES FOR IT TO GO AWAY. THAT WAS OVER 1500 MILES AGO................. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICEL. THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED AT 16000, THE TRANSMISSION (SMG) WAS RE[;ACED AT 20000, NOW THE ENGINE REV HIGH AT IDEL AND SEND STRON VIBRATION TO THE CABIN AND STEERING COLUMN. BMW OF HOUSTON NORTH, A LOCAL DEALER IN HOUSTON, TX, WERE LESS THAN HELPFUL IN TRYING TO SOLVE THE CURRENT PROBLEM. IT APPEARS THAT THEY WANT TO KEEP THE PROBLEMS WITH M3 QUIET. *AK
