Hi, I am new to the forum and relatively new to the world of owning a BMW but have found a few posts of great help already. My 2000 reg 330i auto tip has decided to give up reverse :eek - well creeps backwards on the flat but won't accelerate backwards or do anything on an incline but just revs with no motion.
Forwards there is no problem at all with drive or when using the tiptronic mode. Has anyone any idea of what may be causing this? Not sure it makes any difference but the reversing sensors are tempermental at the best of times and there appears to be a humming noise when in 5th gear..... sounds like a new gearbox to me...
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
