my pet e60 just came back from BMW, i thrashed it when it was cold and the sb must have
fried some electronics, it couldn't change up a gear when the needle hit red,there was a volatile idle and it died when you stopped still.
the problem was traced to faulty VANOs sensors, Simpson maybe that is your problem??
oil was black from the K&N (the trade off for the fun) and had that changed as well
the problem is fixed and its perfect again.

Isn't there a S4 for this already? why make a S5 sport back to shoot themselves in their own feet?
