I get a "kick" at the end, kinda like a jerk. talking to a few folks, the problem seems to point to the gearbox.That day, I went to AB in penang, and the mechanic told me that, the problem could be due to the gearbox didn't properly get trained. He also mention that, this problem is found on E60 and e90. He said that, there is a override, where when the car comes to a standstill, the gearbox will disengage partially, so that when you are not moving but in D, the engine will not just waste energy and drive the torque converter. He said that feature is the culprit and it can also be turnoff.So in the end, he adviced to reset the gearbox adaptive memory and see if the problem goes away, and if it doesn't he can program the gearbox to disable the idle disengage feature. I got my adaptive gearbox memory cleared, and that seems to solved my problem.While I was there, a e60 owner also complaint the same thing.</p></blockquote><p></p>
