Someones going to ask why... so I might as well say so now.
Service Measure
Engine Electrical
B12 201 05
03/14/2005
This Service Measure supersedes SM B12 208 04 dated 02/01/2005.
Subject
N62 Engine (ME9.2.1 and ME9.2.2) Automatic or SMG Transmission Equipped Vehicles, Loss Of Power While Decelerating and Turning or Coming To A Stop.
Models
E60 (5 Series), E63 and E64 (6 Series), E65 and E66 (7 Series) produced between 09/03 to 12/04 and equipped with automatic or SMG transmission.
Complaint
Automatic 6HP26 Transmision Equipped Vehicles:
The customer complains the vehicle exhibits a loss of power while decelerating and turning or coming to a stop, momentarily affecting steering effort.
SMG GS6-53BZ Transmission Equipped Vehicles:
The customer complains while driving that the transmission switches from the D3 to M2 mode, momentarily affecting steering effort, while decelerating and turning or coming to stop.
Cause
DME software calibration.
Measure
Automatic 6HP26 Transmision Equipped Vehicles:
On a customer complaint basis only, reprogram the vehicle using CIP 15.0 or higher.
SMG GS6-53BZ Transmission Equipped Vehicles:
When available, reprogram the vehicle with CIP 16.1 or higher.
Not only does it do that but it BANGs into gear and creates a HUGE shock on the drive train which is BAD....!!!!

Geo and Tom are the shop foremen. They are the only ones that can truly answer that question or your mechanic who actually performs the CIP upgrade, which in my case is JP.
