Of course, that's why the damn wire broke in the shifter :P

For those of you with ATs: be careful, as the shifter is NOT designed for frequent flips from D to DS (there is a cable that gets pulled, and it WILL break eventually). I guarantee it. There's someone else on this thread that had this exact problem. We were both lucky to fix it under warranty, but if you're out, then it's a $500 shifter assembly or a lot of soldering and hoping your skillz are leet enough.
lol... i guess BMW wants you to drive like a grandmother.
