Has anyone ever experienced a stuttering or bucking feel at creeping speeds, almost like if you have a manual tranny and dont give it enough gas at first. (i.e. while moving up in traffic while only letting off the brake slightly to move forward). This is the only time it does this, idles just fine when completely stopped. I thought the engine revs were set too low, but engine RPMS remain constant about 800-900 with no fluctuation.

I have still extendend warranty on car, but would have to drive 100miles to dealer. Just maybe hoping for a quick fix or something but may end up driving down to Vegas for fix.

Thanks in advance

Hey, i have a manual and i have this problem when i am idling in 3rd gear at around 1000-1500 RPM, told the dealer, they apparently checked it and said there was nothing wrong with the car. why would you have to drive 100miles to a dealer? you can go to any BMW dealer, even if you didnt buy your car from that one, the closest dealership to you cant be 100 miles away can it? lol

It would help if you put what model of car you have....
535i I could point you in the direction , but most of the others some one else would have to help out.

Sorry, 2004 545 Sport. Unfortunately, here in southern Utah, Las Vegas is the closest dealer. We are kind of separated from the rest of the world here.

Try the 25 second transmission reset and I bet you it'll fix it.
