Are you ready to unlock the true power of your BMW? When tuning into sports mode inside your car, you're enabling the BMW engine to fully accelerate. Once ""DS"" ( aka drive sport) is displayed on the instrument cluster, sports mode is on.
Sports mode reveals a faster gear ship, allowing for higher RPMS and faster performance.
Most BMW models with automatic transmissions feature a sports mode. You can see in this example highlighting the 3 Series sedan, sports mode is activated by putting the transmission into ""drive"" and pulling the shifter to the left, until locking into position.
Additionally, you gain the ability to manually shift the transmission.
- To upshift: Pull the selector rearward
- To downshift: Pull the selector downwards
The selected gear will be displayed on the instrument cluster.

Thank you for explaining it clearly
Now, what happens when you use the button to the left of the gear shift?
Nothing
The sport button?
The suspension, steering and engine goes into a sport mode.
I have a CPO 2017 X5 50i and when I move my shift knob to the left, it doesn't stay, it pops back to 'D'. I can see on the display it shows S1 or M2, but it goes to 'D' immediately as I let go the knob moves back to the right.
Am I doing something wrong?
Put its into sports plus on the botton first
Yes you did something wrong. You bought the car without putting it through its paces first. You should be able put the vehicle into sport mode either by moving the shifter to the left OR by selecting Sport mode from the drive mode button. You don't need to use both.
😀👍👍
why do car companies feel they need to make things incredibly complex to impress? keep it simple. if i have to go online to find out how to shift my car into drive or reverse, there's a problem.
This is not about shifting into drive or reverse. This is the separate sport mode thats let you change gears yourself.
casual
Not all cars are made for the average person, no offence intended, people who believe a cars only purpose is to drive from A to B should stick to cars with no sports mode lol, if they find things like this difficult
If this is complicated for you please stay away from a vehicle
Haha the problem isn’t with the car!!!
