2008 530d e61 M sport manual gearbox

[paneuro]

I have recently had a new clutch fitted and notice that it has stopped displaying on the dash which gear I'm  in, or should I say when I should be changing up or down the gearbox. It doesn't bother me greatly but it was working prior to having the new clutch fitted.  I have searched the handbook but so far I can't find any reference to this. Can anybody throw any light on this?  regards Paneuro.

This is a new one for me as well. I can onlt think something under the gearstick is either not plugged back in or loose

Hi Dave, I thought you would dive into that one. I have found a reference to it in the book and it would appear its connected via the computer on the I drive but so far I have not been able to give it the kiss off life. i can follow the instructions so far and then nothing. I will keep trying and if your interested the first reference is on page 85 of my handbook . thanks Paneuro.

Nothing in settings in the iDrive that needs the tick box registering ? Guess you have looked there

hi Dave, I had a look there and if its there I couldn't find it, the only other place it seems to suggest is to do with the BC button on the indicator lever but I have tried that as well and no joy, it may be that there is some sort of procedure which has to be followed in the right order but until now I am at a loss. cheers Paneuro.
