ZF8 Manual Down Shift Fail
I drive a 2014 M135i for 54000km and now the paddle shifter showed a problem. Sometimes if I switch to manual mode and click the "-" paddle for down shift, it'll either not response or up shift. Using the gear selector to shift manually is fine, problem only occurs when down shifting with paddle. Pretty strange i'll say, anyone ever experienced similar problems?

I'm having this same problem in the left paddle of my 125i 2014. The horn and cruise control also started to fail after a while. All problems related to a control board, inside the steering column. It will have to be replaced.
Watch out for the downs at high rpm. You can jump into first gear and swerve at your change. |

A disclaimer: I might still be wrong, couldn't care less about ATs, but from the little I know about them you need a more general control failure than steering paddle/interface to select an auto gear arbitrarily. |
