[QUOTE="roland1888, post: 191904, member: 1095"] Hi wglee, Don't worry, your car is fine. I posted up this thread when I had my E46 328 last time but I can't find the thread anymore. The sifus in the forum assured me that all is well, so don't worry. Try putting the pedal to the metal when your is in D the next time the traffic lights turns green. It will definitely move off from 1. under normal circumstances, your car will move off from 2nd gear. You can confirm this when you shift to steptronic mode and let it downshift by itself when you come to a standstill. You will see that it will move off from 2. Other than that method, you can also roughly estimate the number of times it changes gear when you leave it at D and just drive off. Just count it mentally and my bet is, your car will move off from 2nd gear if you drive off smoothly. [/QUOTE]
