I just completed the fix, thanks to the useful guidance here. I fitted a new spring (cost me around £8 on ebay) instead of unwinding the broken spring. Whole job took me around 3 hours.
Error code has now gone away. However, I just discovered I can no longer use the gearbox in manual mode. With some difficulty I can force the selector lever over to the left into manual, but I can't then rock it forward or backwards to change gears. I guess I must somehow have reassembled the unit wrongly, so I'll have to take it apart again. What would help would be an exploded diagram or picture of the selector box internals, but I can't seem to find one. Would be useful to see if I've somehow lost a spring or something. |

I doubt you will find a diagram for the gear selector itself |

Hi mates, I have the same problem with my BMW X1 2017 ~57,000KM.
I went to a local dealer but they can't sell the spring but want to sell a gear selector for $950CAD. Can someone please PM me the link where I can buy this spring? I really appreciate any help you can provide. |

Did you read the thread? I posted the link to the Ebay seller I used to get the spring https://www.ebay.com/itm/Torsion-Spr...53.m1438.l2649

Hi,
I've got the same problem with my E84 X1, the error pops up only with the when the start/stop function starts the car. As far as I see you guys all had the problem with the next generation X1 (f48). Has anyone had this issue with an E84 X1? Different services gave different answers (mechatronic issues, transmission card change required etc.). Haven't been able to found a service to replace the spring and I got no mechanic skilss therefore afraid of openning up the parts myself. So, would like to hear if anyone from Turkey has been able to fix this issue or if anyone had it with an E84? Best, |

Gear lever spring failure
Hi all, I complained to BMW UK, claiming this issue should be under a recall, due to the amount of people complaining about it, they advised I take my X1 to BMW Sunningdale in the UK, to have a diagnostic, after an hour they confirmed there was any issue with the gear selector.....no shit sherlock, anywho, They were not prepared to fix this and i would have to pay...... this cost me the privilege of £50 and if i wanted the work completed a further £1500......
Why is this not been picked up by BMW as a recall i do not know.... Thanks Last edited by Drewsyuk; 07-27-2022 at 10:16 AM.. Reason: update |

Well done everyone! I check this thread about once a year! Glad to see my guide is still helping!!
PS - I still have the car - going great. I did have a blown turbo due to the dual scroll actuator failed. I did a full turbo refurb, stage 1 tune, DPF delete. Car is like a rocket!! |

Same old Transmission error message
Hi thought I would jump on to this forum - like many I am receiving the ‘transmission’ error message and this timed well as I was putting the vehicle in for. 75K service.
Again like many received spa stupid quote for $2400 (AUS) to replace gear selector. Question - has anyone had any success with goodwill replacement from BMW in Australia OR has heard of any update from BMW on accepting responsibility for the replacement of gear selector. Like the info on the DIY work to replace the spring but fear not mechanical enough to risk it. Thoughts? |

Hey all. If any of you have this issue and living in the Sydney area, I know someone who I would highly recommend. I did a lot of research and attempted to this this myself but failed terribly on the trim removals and ended up damaging a trim!! At that point, I found BMSense online and they came out and completed the job within a few hours with no issues. Check out there website - www.bmsense.com.au

I have just started getting the Secure vehicle with parking brake when stationionary warning in my 2016 X1 75000 miles. I have scanned for fault codes with a cheap OBD but shows 0 faults. This month I have also had 2 other warnings - seat belt light when nobody was sitting in it which resolved after a couple of weeks and a rear light bulb failure when all lights were working fine. This also resolved after a week. My questions are - could there be another issue causing these warnings? If there was a problem with a broken spring, should there be a fault code?
