Hi All, so ive got a BMW e90 2009 n53. Ive got some problem which im hoping someone could help out with, in first gear it seems to have no torque or power. I can accelerate and only reach about 20mph at 4000rpm. I have changed the clutch and also had a noxem sensor fitted but nothing has seemed to of helped. Other gears seem to be fine, just seems to be the first.

I know its not like this as Ive had the car for a while and no what the torque in first gear should feel like.

Any ideas would help please.

Is the clutch slipping or just no engine power in first gear? Seems an odd / unlikely engine fault if it affects only one gear.

I feel it more in the first gear second and third have a good pull just first gear feels slow. How do I check if its slipping as it's a new clutch?

Is the engine revving and it not moving? If not then the clutch is likely good. Scan with ista and show the codes. Or use bmw deep obd2 app with a bluetooth obd2 adapter

Unplug the maf and drive it, does it feel better?

Then unplug the eccentric shaft sensor. Does it feel better?

Have you got software to reset all the engine adaptions? I would do this too before anything else.
