Ok, no problem. I have a diagnostic reader that's checks the whole system. So far no faults and all systems check out 100%. The only fault I get is about the high pressure on the fuel rail which I'm used to because of the change over from petrol to gas.

This may be related, possible valve body or solenoid issue but i am clutching at straws

Hi,
I've just been reading the maintenance manual and I may have stumbled across the reason. Apparently this gearbox is a Mechatronic which adapts to your driving style. It holds the revs up in "change of mind" scenario in case you need to continue a manouver. Unless I'm a bit thick or totally read it wrong. What do you think.

i have heard the phrase used called 'RTFM' which refers to reading the manual ....

The BMWs used a system called AGS - Adaptive Gearbox System - which adjusts and 'learns' your driving style....as you mention, it is anticipating that you have given it beans, and as such will delay an upshift....

Is that the fancy term for "kickdown"?

Does this happen in Sport mode as well as ‘normal’ mode? Are all the brake lights working?

Hi Phil,
Thanks for contacting me. I having tried it in sport but I can remedy that tomorrow. I thought I had found the problem unless there is something else you can think of. Any info would be greatly received and appreciated. Happened a couple of times again today but I'm not sure if it was when changing over from petrol to gas, could this have an influence ?
Cheers
