You are ambling along in your lovely BMW and suddenly a gap open up and you want to accelerate to get into it – but all it does is groan and accelerates like a 116i pulling a trailer. Well, this is extremely annoying and has been the case since the 1990’s!
This video explains why your BMW hesitates before accelerating – but much more importantly tells you a simple trick to stop it happening so you can release the full beans whenever you want it. Go on, you know you want to!

Timm its nice to see your car back on the road after the last videos with the problem of the Oil leak from the Filter Housing. Nice to see you crusing along the road and hit the Sport mode 😀 Nice video with good infos as well again! love your videos! Good to hear that the e31 is making Progress in the background! Keep up the good work Mate!
Greetings from Germany!
Very cool, does launch mode make a difference when you do step up? Love the tips!
Excellent video!
Hi Timm I have an e63 645. Cold morning today had a rough idle / seemed to be misfiring and “increased emissions” on the screen. Any ideas?
Ditch finder tyres won't help either in wet weather.
I drive my E91 330 with the trans in Sport mode almost 100% of the time. Much better throttle response and power
I think this counts for other brands as well.
Or just buy a manual 😉
Hi Timm.. great content as always. What’s your thoughts/opinions on a xhp flash on the gearbox? It seems to be a popular mod to do on these cars.
My x5 with the n62 goes into this mode automatically when going up steep hills and it takes a while to let go when at the top. After a while of revving quite high it will finally settle down and go back into economy mode. Not sure if that's normal or not
never knew about this, going to try it in the 840 when i finally get it back after some long awaited work
Glad to see the 650i back on the road! looking forward to more posts
Thank You for advice, it works even without vanos or valvetronic in e39 540i when crusing. I was hoping it would eliminate thinking when start from 0-60, but not. Performence mode not help either…I think I need to replace the knock sensors
Nice one
Thank you
