  3. BMW Coding and Programming
    Hi everyone, I’ve bought an msport steering wheel for my f31 2016. I tried to code the paddle shifters with bimmer code and nothing. Took it to a mechanic that “can” code and he said it’s all done but it’s not pre wired and obviously still charged me. Went home took everything apart and it is...
  4. General BMW Questions
    So, my “New to me” 2016 F30 is my first car with paddle shifters, and I have some basic, stupid questions. 1. Once I’m done using my paddle shifters, how do I revert to driving automatic transmission? 2. Can I use paddle shifters beyond Sports mode? 3. Is there a “correct” or “recommended”...
  5. X5 E70 (2007 - 2013)
    Can anyone confirm that an E71 Sport steering wheel with paddle shifters and heated steering wheel will fit on a non-Sport 2012 LCI E70? I'm getting ready to do the heated steering wheel retrofit and found a good deal on an E71 Sport steering wheel that also happens to have the paddle...
  6. General BMW Questions
    Were paddle shifters available for E36? If not available for that gen, what about E90/5th gen 3-series, and if so what year were they available? I've read a few different posts online that go into detail about the different types of transmissions that BMW's have, but I'm a total car noob so...

    With transmission selector in "Manual" mode the transmission will not upshift from the stick. It will upshift from the paddles, however, that's hard to do from gears 1 and 2 as I am usually actively steering during the time. I like to use my shifter (manual mode). Is there a sensor somewhere...

    I have a BMW F25 2011, was orginally bought with a standard steering wheel. When I visited a friend In london I managed to buy some extras from my car and risked to buy another steering wheel with paddle shifters which was the only reason why I bought the steering wheel. Lets get to the...

    The steering wheel paddle shifters on my 2006 550i SMG (~82k miles) has stopped working properly but everything else is working fine with the shifter on the floor and in the "Drive" mode. Has anyone else experiences this and know how to fix? Is there a fuse, relay or any other component I an...

    Hi, I own a BMW 128i 2009 with the premium steering wheel and i want to make an upgrade to add paddle shifters. Do i need to buy a OEM steering wheel or can i adapt the paddles to this steering wheels? Thanks:)
  13. F22 / F23 2 Series (2014 - Current)
    Was wondering if anyone else had this happen in manual mode... Off the line, pull the paddle back to shift into second and the car does two very briefly and then right into third. Any particular reason this happens?

    on my 2004 645ci, I like to replace my existing steering wheel with one that has the paddle shifters, what has to be done to make the shifters work or can it be done at all? I have found some info about retrofitting a 5 series with paddle shifters. I also called the dealer they told me that they...
  15. E90/E91/E92/E93 (2006 - 2013)
    I love the cosmetics of the 2011 paddle shifter! I own a 2010 335i with a DCT steering wheel & I want to upgrade/replace the 2010 shifters with 2011s, is the 2011 part compatible on a 2010 335i wheel? Note: I prefer not to purchase an entire wheel just to change the appearance of paddle shifters.

    Hello everyone, first post, very exciting. I ordered a 2011 328i through U.S. Military Sales before moving back to the states and I'm awaiting delivery some time this week (can't wait). Unfortunately, I'm concerned that BMW might have built my car with the wrong transmission. I ordered a car...
  18. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    Hi There, We have a 2006 530xi Touring and are largely quite happy. One thing I would like to do is retrofit paddles since the +/- on the gear selector lever is *not* intuitive. I've seen a post about this somewhere I'm sure, but just spent 45 minutes using the Search feature and can't find...
