How To Use The BMW Steptronic Transmission And Select Drive Modes
In this video I show you how to use the BMW steptronic transmission and how to start and select Drive, Reverse, Neutral, Park, Sports, and manual. In addition I show you how to select eco pro, comfort, and sport modes.
Please refer to the updated video in the link above where I answer a lot of your questions that have been posted here as well as a large reduction in me saying "so". Hope you enjoy! - Авто та транспорт
To answer many of your questions about how to use the transmission while driving I made another video explaining the drive modes and transmission settings. The link: ua-cam.com/video/vKdPJfpALKo/v-deo.html
And the P is for Pu**y mode for the ppl that don’t like speed but still have bmw’s
Ok ok wait…..So they don’t stand for all of that??
😂😂😂😂😂😂
"...this is a critical part...you push the unlock button..". Shit...that's critical.
Many BMW owners are unaware of this feature thank you for posting
LoL u are ryte ..I am a bmw owner steptronic bt I don't know lots ..is true
Going from a manual 320i F30 SE (pre-lci) to a semi-auto 340i F30 M Sport (lci), so this video was surprisingly supee helpful, haha! It'll take me a few hours to get used to not engaging my clutch foot, but it's worth the adjustment for a sweet 3.0 twin turbo teehee
Neutral if for revving at the guy next you....lmao.. love it.
vicgar02 I was looking for this comment lmao
Out of all videos urs is the most detailed, good job
A hint: Shift into N; apply handbrake: release the brake pedal that the car itself fixes into the final positon; press the P. This way you won't stress the gearbox.
Thank You, I like how you explained it, you give so many details I appreciate it
Saved my ass brother! I just got this via car sharing service, time running and in 5 minutes I couldn’t figure how to start the damn thing! 😀
Thanks for the vid, I’m going from a manual Skoda to automatic bmw 430d soon so this has been very helpful 👍🏻👍🏻
why are yal so mad 😂 some people may have found this video useful, atleast he's helping someone instead of talking shit under comments
Thanks for the detailed video as i'm looking to get a BMW, by the way you should always put the handbrake on first before putting the car in Park as this means no pressure is put on the parking pin which is more expensive to repair than the handbrake once worn out.
I was looking for this for so long thanks 👍👌👍👍
“u can rev at someone next to u” 😂😂😂😂😂🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Thanks dude, really helped me
great video, very informative - thank you
Thanks for the video. It helped us.
Thanks for the video bud, it did help
I still dont have mine but learning first, thank for share it 👍
I'm an Audi guy (manual transmission born and bred), but I've always wondered how the BMW shift stick works. Now I have my answer...neat. Nice, useful video you got here.
Robert Petrea u look very smart in the picture bro
Beautiful lesson. Thanks
Thanks for this man
Good explanation!!
I thought R: was for Racing mode. And N: for Night driving mode. D: day driving mode. Ha.
Dumb ass
CARAMEL PAPI you obviously don’t get the joke
😂😂😂😂😂
Old joke.
OMG lol
I’ve had mine for almost 2 years and I finally decided to find out what that M/S does. Thanks for this video.
M/S a.ka. "passing lane mode".
Thanks.. very helpful
thx bro nice video
thanks for your review I appreciate it
Incredible video
What is incredible about it ?
@Dacia Sandero guys where the fuck is sarcasm in this comment
@@jeffsafawi7947 just leave if you dont understand sarcasm
Nice car nice drive. I use this one in my work BMW 2017 use automatic and car is amazing :)
Very good thank u
I’m glad for this video because I will be buying a BMW soon and I did not know how to put it in drive and reverse and I did not want to ask dealer how to drive it because that will make me look stupid
I'm glad it helped you.
Good vid
thank you!
Thank you for this
Thankss my bro )
Thank you so much
Very informative video
It was helpful
so nice
Great vid I tried on my dads car to drive it and nearly crashed into a river but we saved it so it was okay 👍🏻
As a european this is helpful thanks
I've watched the video with foucing on all steps without being BMW owner 😂😂😂
me too lol.
same lol i was just curious how that transmission works.
So like can you also make a video on how to make a left and right hand turn?
TheAangzoe how to use turn signals 😂
Your probably the only American who uses the handbrake. Proud of you bruh.
I just try and keep the tradition alive.
What’s a handbrake
Jk
I use it too lol. It is pretty rare. My parents are born and raised in Romania, and they don’t even use it
BaeThe3rd i’m one of the americans who drives a real manual!
The parking brake is really a safety device to keep the car from moving it the car slips out of park and takes tension off the park mechanism when on a hill.
Thanks 🙏
👍👍 excellent
Thank you. Worked on my e60
Glad it helped.
I Like it man!! thx for the Training,always want to buy Bmw :( but never had a chance ..Thx Btw
Thank you, Glad I could help!
Wow I love this
Thanks!
Thank you
I drove a friends 5 series this weekend. This shifter took a minute to get use to. And what is with not being able to drive the car when the driver's door is open? I often open the door when I back in to parking places to see how far I am away from a wall.
to keep people from jumping out, and saying "just like in the movies"
Tank you👏
Thanks
Good looks man 💪🏻💯, iam 12 years old and my mom has a Bmw X5 like yours , i’ve started to drive it , and i didn’t know which way to put it in to drive , Thanks man💫💯💪🏻‼️
Ellis Goat make sure u ask her before u take it out!
Ellis Goat im 12 and im going to get one when im 16 😁😁😁
Be safe little men ✌
I’m in city a lot lots stop/go traffic this is when an auto comes into its own gets tiring working pedals manual shift all the time, means the road gets your full attention also. Wouldn’t want a manual again, and the gear changes are so smooth.👍but then Im a cabbie in Edinburgh city all day driving a tx auto, driving manual working gears all day and clutch gets tiresome
I already know about my word problem with "so", please hold your comments about it. Thank you!
Exactly like mine. What year .
Do you have paddle shifters?
Ok good morning could you show me how to use the plus and minus paddles on the steering wheel
You didn't show how to go from R to D and D to R. Because I don't think you unlock all the time. Great video btw
I got a 2015 328i last week.. when I choose sport and then move it into manual. Do I HAVE to shift over in manual / what happens if you choose sport but don’t move the gear shift to the left 🤗
Correction* obviously I move it to the left but do I have to manually shift up and down or will it do that if I don’t...
You don’t hav to put a it in manual
@@Hohmodepot if you want it to shift for you then don't push it to left. Left is MANUEL mode. So you can manually shift.
"to park, you press the P button"
Me: _giggles_
Love f30😍😍
Quick question does any BMW 1 series has a head up display please
yes 2020
It’s a regular automatic with a button for park you’re welcome
@nyssia angel you’re welcome
I was stuck in the car dealership for 15 days nw .. thanks
You shoud bull the handbrake first then put in park
You could damage the transmission if you put it in park first
BOMBAAAAA
I have an x6 40d automatic, And there isnt a button for sport mode, If I put the gearshift on Sport
Why is this in my suggested box, plus BMW's gear lever is so simple to use.
For real, it's self explanatory.
I am wondering how to switch from manual mode to automatic in sport trasmision. I push back to D and then back to left but I assume there is also diffrent way how to do it?
I am uploading a video to explain just that.
worth to know that if you put stick into sport mode, it won't change to 8th gear - only 1-7 will be used.
oh and if you change into sport no need to turn off auto start-stop - it doesn't work in either sport mode
All of us people in the UK are having to watching a UA-cam video to learn how to drive an automatic. I've only ever driven a manual transmission.
Sad days are upon us in the automotive world... but make sure you check out my updated video on the transmission as I answer a lot of questions I received on this one.
Hahaha yes I'm watching so I don't embarrass myself when I go test drive a bimmer
first time you must use hand brake, after you must press Park button.. is better for gearbox
Does it makes sense when you change the gear from N to D or R the car has a little shake??
yeah totally normal
wow i had no idea now i can drive my bimmer
so you have to put on sport mode to use the manual shifting mode?
No
So with ms we can take control of car Like shifting and downshifting of gears?
AhmeD SaiF yes. When you first push it to the left, it prepares a sportier algorithmfor gears. When you push or pull it once in that mode it enters the manual
Start driving with the hand brake on.
whats the difference between sport and sport transmition?
The sport MODE changes the settings for the gears so you get more performance and torque as well as locking down the suspension for a more road feel/tight ride.
The sport TRANSMISSION is basically letting you shift gears either using the center stick or the paddle shifters so you can drive in a clutchless manual shifting fashion. FUN times!
If you can dream it you can make it
It looks like you have the 320i sport package, I’d this true? And if show do you feel like it’s underpowered than a regular 328i?
You are correct, I do think it was underpowered during its production. The regular 328i is much better on power. The 335i/340i is the best value however for power and handling
Can i active or driving in sport mode by simply push the sport mode button without shifting the gear to the left (M/S)?
Yes
@@brandonbelanger_Official if I'm in neutral and I don't have my foot on the brake, does the car go in front?
Itl roll
THANK YOU for this video lol i tried to take my parent''s 740i for a ride (they were out of state) and i couldnt get the car to change gear. turns out i was supposed to press brake at the same time as i press the start button. i was trying for like an hour before your video saved me!
Glad I could help!
What is the interior color name of your interior highlights? The silver looks nice.
Brushed Silver
It has assitance park?
And how to get back from MS to DS?
can you describe difference between two design joystick gear shifter on F10 5 series( preLCI just like your video and LCI )? that is same 8 gear ? or 6 gear and 8 gear for LCI?
I believe the main difference is design and function. I'm sure that they both are 8 speed gearbox's
This guy is teaching us how to screw up our gear...dude
How exactly 😂
You can’t , it’s simple Put into D or R , release handbrake - off you go ( Youl never use neutral - no need.
Come to a stop 🛑- Press P lift Handbrake…
u can just push one time because u will feel there is 2 level , ca u can just to rev or D without passing N

Hi! I'm planning to buy a 118d urban sport line 2014. I heard a lot about their timing chain problems. It is said the problem was solved after 2011. Do you think 2014 models are far away timing chain problems? Thank you for replying
Yes they probably have fixed that issue.
after 6.2013 all series that got this problem was fixed BUT if you are going to buy used one just look at service book did guy change one if the car has above 150k km...im planing to buy soon 2014 2015 320d with 184hp m performance,now that is beauty car
Hey, Parking gear and Neutral gear, does they make any difference?
Park locks the transmission in place, neutral is completely free of any brakes or lockes.
Learning to change gears of a bmw I dont even own. Oh wait, I dont even own. a car lol
yes I just dream to have me too
When on manual mode do you need to press the brakes everytime you shift the gear forward or backwards whilst driving?
No that would be unsafe and is not necessary.
I think if you buy that car you know how. But nice video bro 😅
thanks.
Some people shouldn’t be alowed to own a bmw
Haha agree
So, Mr amateur. Shocking video. Back to school for you.
