They also need to check if the computer has stored DTCs, if there is, might even need to check the fluid for shavings (if any).

 

to be real i do not like the power of these brakes.
in the real world... they behave like they should...
day to day... stop and go traffic.... they are fine.... so light applications are good....
driving in city speed... between 25-40mph ... they brakes work fine..... the applications for slowing down is fine..
so emergency they are fine.... light they are fine... and moderate they are fine.... this car is to heavy to only have 2 piston callipper...

like i said before... i donnot know... what adaptations they are doing...
and they dont call them adaptatiions... nor have they mentioned that this 9A is adaptive...
Im dissapointed in this car
i own a 2020 bmw x6 xdrive 40i msport... a beauty in every sense of the word... and that ZF 8Hp transmission... is a delight.... shift super fast... responds super fast... and you dont feel anything..

 

I feel that my transmission has a real problem... i do feel it.
But for now... they are only doing updates and recalibrations... its been 15 days... since they have the car....

 

Ugh frustrating.

 

Sorry about the confusion, I am still asking about your transmission not the brakes, I mean how does the transmission react under those 3 braking thresholds and differences. Do you hear a clunk noise, a bang noise or just jerking, does it jerk stronger in certain brake applications.

 

What can I say. Im just waiting to see how the dealer manages this issue.
but something was made clear.... if this did not go... I dont want the car anymore.... ive only onwned since october 2024... only 6k miles...

 

lol...

The tranmission does not jerk on emergency stops... as i can recall... but i have not done an emergency stop recently nor during the test drives...
the jerk comes while slowing down.... it does not need the brakes.... by it self... once it needs to droop a gear... from 4th to 3rd... it jerks... now after the 2 recallibrations... its better... but still perceptible....
the one that does not have any better outcome.... is asking the car power..... from fifth to 3rth.... then you can feel the clunk and the jerk,....

no soundss like metal to metal

 

In that case, still think a standstill adaptation will help.

 

Have you bedded your brakes? It can make a world of difference.

Regarding your transmission, it sounds defective, maybe debris in a valve body.

 

Sorry to hear that, really hope they give you an update on the car already.

I second the possibility of a valve body issue although I still think it is worth trying the adaptation first. They probably won't pull the transmission off without having an error code stored so that is another annoying part. Thing about these computers is, they don't always know if itself is broken or something is actually wrong.

 

I had the Same issue with my 2024 GLS 450, I suggest you take it to dealership, there is a software update for this issue , and the dealership will also perform adaptations as part of the software update. Guess what after that its like a BUTTER , soft and smooth you will feel like a storm just Passed .
Good luck

 

Do you mind posting the work order by chance? Thank you.

 

I would like that also so I could show it to the technician.

​​​​​​A redditor recently posted this.

 

Much obliged.

 

Shift adaptations? I wonder if they also performed stand still adaptation after the software update, as in the software update alone did not fix the issue?

 

Please find my work order description , with the below fix from dealer ship i can say that the issue is completely resolved

 

 

Thanks for the work order, I wonder why the have to perform standstill adaptation 5 times.

 

I think it's usually three to five times to verify it's accepted.
In practice, I don't think it's any different from the previous method that required two technicians, but they had to drive around to do it.
Thus the "stand still" moniker.

 

I see, that explains why forum members say it is a tedious process and patience is required.

 

My GlS450 is now butter smooth after everything.
but dealer did not. Give me any official documentation of the process.
nothing.

 

Strange they didn't give you any documentation, or work order, they probably forgot to. You could request for one but I think they basically installed that updated software and did some standstill adaptations.

 

They gave me just a simple word document with no specifics...
cars running fine for now.

 

This is the report they gave me in spanish...it only had 6k miles on the clock at the time being.
