yeah it is very ruff when touching the car but when I drove it it is ok.
I think it just need a good service and clean engine parts

i think so, i want to get it clean and fix asap ar

no, this car don't have china license, the new 535i has.
all cars running in china must use china petro.
then later, they all need to clean the fuel filter once a while? more often then the car only fill gas in hk?

Will that be the infamous "Transmission Slam" that has been discussed widely in this forum?
I've got my car serviced within warranty and the software was updated, after that the transmission slam problem is gone.
The transmission slam issue was something like a sudden "chok" before fully stopping the car.
