[QUOTE="leforte, post: 330094, member: 1943"] paul, the noreverse.org website is for all bmw fitted with the ZF 5hp19 STEPTRONIC gearbox. yours is a getrag 5speed MANUAL with smg factory retrofit. so it bares no resemblance or relations to you current issues. the process you mentioned at the first paragraph has no effects on your no reverse issue either . that is a smg slip detection process, and its only required or done after a tire change or wheel change. this process also resets the clutch engagement point after all the wear and tear. if its software problem, swapping in a new or borrowed smg egs unit will quickly diagnos the issue. which in your case is definately not. have your bmw speciallist check on the gear selection assembly. that's your problem, and you need a getrag repair kit for it. your bmw speciallist can easily find the tecnical buletin from the TIS manual and all the updated parts or repair kit is clearly stated in the parts catalogue. its a inherited getrag gearbox failing point and it traces itself back to all bmw car fitted with a getrag unit.
