I have an automatic and when it changes gear it over revs. Does anyone have any ideas of what this could be or has had this issue.

Welcome to the Forum

It could be low fluid level in the box, it could be just simple wear and tear (they should be serviced every 50 to 80k) it could ne a torque converter fault? 

You need th ecodes read by either a BMW or Gearbox specialist to know

Thanks Dave, I had the fluid changed but didn’t make any difference. I’ll have to get it book in to get it sorted. Thanks for the advice.

      Instrument cluster suddenly died

      Many thanks once again Greydog Dave . I haven't yet contacted my auto electrician friend but when I do I'm sure he will find your information useful and interesting. He will take a while to visit me because of ill health but when he does I will contact you. Many thanks and a happy new year.

      Tailgate programming soft close

      Apologies if this has been broached already but I did do a search. I am looking for help to try and recode the tailgate on my X3 F25 2016 model. The tailgate slams shut and is a bit concerning. I believe it can be programmed to do a soft close. I have looked on my Bimmercode app but cannot see where to alter the setting. Its all in German of course. Below is the menu after selecting Tailghate Module. Any help appreciated.

      PDC parking error

      Morning Nick Welcome to the Forum Normally it will be one or two sensors that fail as you say, I would go back and test the sensors again. PDC on then ligtly touch each sensor with an ear close you should hear clicking and feel a light vibration. I would have a spare sensor to swap in the event you find a non responsive one (the trick is being able to get at the sensors) If a sensor is swapped and remains unresponsive check the loom from that sensor to the next for continuity. Good Luck Dave

      Power steering issue

      Morning Charlie Welcome to the Forum I would guess either you have trapped the wiring or pulled a plug to the power steering somewhere. The only way is to back track all your work and check. Assuming that you have checked fuses and the power steering motor ? Good Luck Dave
