[QUOTE="k3nny, post: 210504, member: 139"] RC523: I have the same experience with you, except mine is from D to R. Because im prone to reverse parking, everytime i slot the car in for parking, and i push it into reverse, theres a slight delay and then a sudden thunk as the car engages reverse. I find that this doesnt happen if i go slow by pushing it into N, and then subsequently into R. Anyhow, im driving the N-series 525i sports which i bought from AB in Feb 2006. My car was into Sapura Auto for some other things and they discovered the following. 1. My rear diff was almost gone. They emptied out the diff oil and along with it came alot of metal shards. They replaced that under warranty. 2. My active steering assembly also kaput it seems. They also replaced that under warranty. I still have some gripes with the car but all in all, i hope to get it all sorted before the warranty expires. Hehe. Sometimes at high speeds, i feel like the car is swaying abit? Is this normal? And the 4 beeps is extremely normal. Hehe. Go to your vehicle settings or Display settings. Under time and date, there is this thing called HOUR MEMO. Just untick it. Ticking it means your car will beep 4 times everytime an hour is approaching to inform you. Like eg 11:59 or 3:59.. :) [/QUOTE]
