Ok so I just tried this and Sports Plus was added to my driving modes. It wasn’t there before 🤔

[@kimsehwang]

This worked! So much better! Thank you so much.

[@nealart]

Thank you definitely an improvement on my 2013 X3.

[@nealart]

Yep it's shifting great!

[@wafiibrahim4192]

my car has an issue accelerating from stop on the first gear, the transmission doesn't seem to engage after i revs up to 2000rpm or more then it slams on the gear and starts moving, especially during uphill roads and cold engine. after the engine warms up, it works perfectly fine. i need your help, thank you.

[@amapala8283]

U got a fix

[@Ronaldo882.]

Thank you 😊

[@kvvonga8016]

Worked on a 2006 x3, transmission was wayyyy slower and throttle is more smooth

[@talaljawad]

You are amazing ❤

[@71961945]

thanks alot you saved me alot of money

[@xr500t]

What's the difference between this and a transmission reset with Inpa? I know that a whole re-learn procedure needs to be done with the Inpa procedure when the trans fluid is done, but what is the relationship between these two and should you do one over the other...... I hope you sort of get my question. (I'm having trouble trying to phrase it! lol!)

[@sincerespeed7779]

Does this work for a 2007 328i ?

This seems like something most know, but not documented very well officially.

[@ronfowler9563]

Will this work for an 06 x3?

[@brennanmitchell121]

Does it affect the vehicle i saw someone said the drive will be abit rough

[@SimpleCarGuy]

It resets the adaptations, so the car has to learn how you drive and may shift rougher than normal for like 5 minutes.

[@topdogg3891]

Will this reset your coded sports automatic transmission if you do this ?

[@Gameplays-ld1ns]

I need help my bmw goes fast thn slows down and fast again like it's shaking or having a seizure real fast idk if it's gear box or something else

[@zackirlbeck4765]

I have a 2011 f10 with a 6 speed manual transmission my throttle response is terrible I have to gas it and it won’t react for a whole second it’s asssss

[@lavazakoffee7373]

Normally other people said that gas pedal has to be pressed only 5 sec.And yours is 30 sec.Why?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I found different people saying different times, but when I tried 10-15 it didn't work for me. So, I said 30 to be safe.

[@jaypt00]

hi will this work on a f20 116i (8speed auto)?my gear changes from first to second are always jerky especially on low speeds (carparks, small streets) thanks and appreciate your reply

[@SimpleCarGuy]

It should work on your car as well, but the process might be slight different. You can google the your cars steps and they should be pretty easily found.

[@aimalalimi7090]

It’s gonna work also for manual gearbox f10

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I don't believe a manual transmission would have any adaptations.

[@SeanKerr-py6xv]

Hey buddy thanks for video i tried this on my e70 x5 it worked for like couple minutes then went back to slugish early/late shifting what do you think it may be?

I just tried it i dont think it made a difference but probably will on other bmw this 7 series is just something else man very hard to find how to do things on this car

[@kelvintan6535]

Does this work for 2020 X3? and will this void the warranty?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I'm not sure if it works on 2020 cars, but you can give it a go. No, it will no void any warranty, it's a simple reset.

did it fix ir?

[@hopelives9307]

I have a 2008 528xi that seems to hesitation when taking off...is this the same issue? And will it work on a 2008?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Your car is a different generation, so you'd have to find the steps for your car. I don't think these steps would work on your car. Will it fix the issue? Well, it really depends on what is causing the hesitation. Hard to tell without driving it.

[@tammyannmccord]

Im having the same problem withmine... Did you ever figure out what the issue was?

[@rakotondrasoahary5795]

Can you turned on the car without pressing the brake pedal? Or did you directly press the accelerator pedal?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

You don't start the engine until you've done the steps and waited about 2 minutes. When I say turn the car on, I mean put it in ACC mode, which is just pressing the button without touching the break.

[@justm514]

Hey, Can I do the same thing for my 2016 F10 M5? I feel like my M5 kind of lags. Thank you

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Should be the same since the same platform. Thanks for watching.

[@uragan1991]

If you have a M5 and look on youtube for diy, you sould not own a m5. Second if you feel the shifting is "slow" just play with the gearbox Buton next to the stickshift. And NO YOURE M5 IS NOT THE SAME BASE AS A fucking f10 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@dayalanvelan3070]

Hi there . I have a 2014 f10 m5 . I don't think the gearbox has same platform as the other models. That is because its a DCT as opposed to a normal torque converter auto . By to fully agree that the box learns my driving style as I do lots short runs to work and back .

[@SimpleCarGuy]

Thanks for the info!

[@justm514]

@@uragan1991 I guess you are a low self esteem young boy that truly doesn’t know about cars. Thats’s fine and that’s probably the reason you most likely don’t own one.

@simplecarguy hey there! So followed this reset on my 2008 X5 3.0 and once i turned the car on, I heard a loud clicking noise, almost like a ratchet type sound. Does this indicate a successful reset? Also car is no longer lagging. So it feel WAY smoother

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I'm not aware of how it works on the 2008 X5 as it's a different generation car, but it does sound like a successful reset to me; especially, if you got noticeable change in the lag like I did!

[@SimpleCarGuy]

@@abdulmohair6142 have you scanned the car to see if there are any codes? I don't think the two would be related, most likely you didn't plug in one of the sensors (throttle position sensor) all the way or something is loose (like a vacuum line).

[@benyaron5068]

hi, i can do that in my bmw x1 2012 e84?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I don’t have an x1 to test on, but it should be something like this: They call it the TBA reset: - Put the power on but do not start the engine. - Floor the throttle for 30-60 seconds - Keep the throttle to the floor and put the power OFF - Release the throttle and wait 2 minutes. During the 2 minutes you should feel or hear some kind of mechanical sound. That should tell you the reset is complete.

You're basically calibrating the throttle body position sensor. The car can then re-learn bases on how you drive.

BMW built some shit's like this

[@rodgazinya]

This is not a fix in any way. This is a bandaid to a very serious safety issue. Worthwhile yes but people should never refer to it as a "fix". Bmw should actually reay "fix" this issue for good.

I agree to a certain degree, but it’s better than waiting for years for BMW to do something. Can you elaborate on how it’s a ‘serious’ safety issue?

[@natalyastroganova9481]

2011 328i xdrive coupe will it work ?

[@SimpleCarGuy]

I'm not sure if the process is the same, but you can give it a go.

[@frankd963]

Worked on my 2018 X3 M40i that I recently bought used. At slower speeds the car seemed sluggish and breaking seemed to occur hard. I think the first owner drove the car hard (when I drove the car hard, gears would shift very smoothly and no sluggishness noticed at all). After doing this Throttle Body Adaption reset the slow speeds are much more normal/responsive and not sluggish (and lower gear shifting is normal too) but the biggest surprise was that the breaking is way more smoother and not hard at all anymore. As the car will now learn my driving habits it will only get better for me. So for me this Throttle Body Adaption reset ended up resetting the throttle and also the breaks too.

I don't know exactly, but for me it was probably 2 or so days of driving to and from work. It does not reset software, it just resets the adaptations.

Thanks for sharing, it's crazy how much of a difference it makes. At some point I was shopping for a 435i and when I drove the very first one, I was not very impressed. It felt slower than my e92 335i I had at the time... then I drove another one and it was miles faster.

It works but it won't last long. A few days later it will be sluggish again. This is not a permanent fix though. You pretty much have to do that all the time.

[@SimpleCarGuy]

The car learns how you drive, so if you drive in slow traffic the next few days the car will be sluggish. You’re right though, it’s not a permanent fix, it just resets the adaptation.

I’ve just bought a F31 330i M Sport touring - manual - 2016 with 77k - one owner - full BMW main dealer service history. I’ve had it a couple of weeks now. I live in London so haven’t had many occasions to take it past 4000rpm. When I have deployed WOT I’ve noticed similar issues posted on here. There is a 1-2 second cut off in the throttle at around 5000rpm when changing from up from 2nd to 3rd and again from 3rd to 4th. I’ve had the spark plugs changed and the garage I bought it from are changing the coil packs next week. He’s plugged it in and there are no error codes whatsoever. Car seems immaculate. I’ve also felt like when I first get to 4th gear - there can also be that 1-2 second cut in throttle power. This only happens when I floor it. It drives superbly otherwise and I’m very happy with it. I’d love to know if anyone has found a definitive answer to what causes this issue and more importantly how to fix it!

[@SimpleCarGuy]

If you've tried this reset (or have the shop do it via a scanner) and it still continues, you could have an injector. Most of the time it would trigger a rich or lean code, but not always if the duration is very short. Hope others have more to say or help! Good luck.

[@olig2508]

@@SimpleCarGuy thanks pal! I’m taking back to garage I bought it from next week so will get them to check injectors. As no error codes going to get them to double check the mapping too as the car runs so smoothly other than this minor throttle delay / cut out I feel like it’s not a mechanical issue. Saying that I’m no mechanic so that assumption is based on f*@k all!
