Have an '05 530i with the 6 speed steptronic auto tranny.
When in manumatic mode, while shifting down, when shifting into M1 just after coming to a stop, the vehicle lurches.
We brought the car to the Gallery and they did a full diagnostic that found nothing to be wrong.
We were told that this is a common issue with the 6 speed manuamatic in the 5 series but it has no adverse effect on the vehicle.
Has anyone else experienced this and found an actual diagnosis or are they telling me the truth.
Thank you all

What "Gallery" are you talking about - that might be your problem

There's probably a tranny ECM reflash available to cure that....

it's the BMW Gallery in Crowfoot. They are the ones that told us there is nothing that can be done.
