Today I’ve experienced an issue with a “check control” message on my screen saying vehicle is ready to drive… EVERY TIME the car came to a full stop, I let me foot off the brake the message would pop up with of course the notorious BMW message sound.
I did have auto start/stop disabled, first thing I do always. I reset the iDrive system twice with no resolution. I also restarted the car, locked it several times etc. nothing.
So reason why I think it’s the hybrid system is when I was backing into my garage. Typically in reverse the hybrid system kicks in. I couldn’t even get in my garage! The car would jerk and automatically shift into park. I put the car back in reverse, take my foot off the brake it would move half inch and automatically shift into park.
When I shifted the gears, I could really hear the transmission slamming into the gear.
I just gave up and left the car in the driveway.. I’ll let the car sleep overnight and hopefully it’s a one time glitch. Either way I’m calling BMW.
Has anyone experienced this with your car or any BMW? This is my first ever bmw and here I am dealing with the typical BMW issues it’s known for. Granted no car is perfect but at 2500 miles? Never have I ever had this issue with other luxury brands. (Excluding Benz lol)
