I took apart the shifter per your video. Great instructions. A piece fell out the shifter I don't know where it goes? It has round metal head in plastic holder with spring inside?
Superb video mate also works treat on e39 snapped my selector cable bought whole unit just wanted the cable got to point throwing the thing trying understand why they made it so hard 🤣😂
Very cool video, but what should I do? I wanted to unscrew the handle before watching the video, I don't know, and I turned the handle and heard the sound of refraction and the handle is now not moving? The work, I think I damaged this handle.
I switched my assembly due to the shift lock solenoid being broken, I removed from an exact identical model as mine 01 330ci. Now it’s stuck in park and only goes out of park when I have the solenoid disconnected but trans light stays on and feels like it’s in limp mode. Any idea on what I should do next?
Could you fill the trans fluid through the shifter knob? I know it’s not the proper way but my fill plug is stripped and my transmission has been clunking. I need to fill it up more
Did you manage to get the code resetting know how to get it sorted?. I got the same thing my e46. Followed the video and now I don’t have the manual option and lost sports drive as well.
@@Paul-gj7qu turned out one of my connectors was under the shifter. after i plugged it in the light went away and worked beautifully. i would just carefully look at every connection
Hello if you move to 11:36 there is the black electronic module , you show only one side the other side has a silver lever that pushes onto a micro switch. I have dropped my lever its a little bent and I cant figure out how it goes together. maybe I lost a connecting part. could you help me here. I cant even find the part online to see the image. Thank you kindly
Godsend! Somehow some idiot mechanics broke my shifter and I couldn't put it into sport or manual anymore. Ordered a replacement for $60 on eBay and thinking about using this video to save paying another mechanic an hours worth of labor! Although, mine came with the cable so i'm not sure how to attach that

The shifter in my BMW X5 is very hard to shift through the gears I looked and nothing was wrong with it. What could be the problem?
