I have a couple of questions. The first one is that my 2006 BMW z4 with an automatic and also has the sport button. I recently noticed that when I accelerate going up hill, I can feel a slight vibration and from watching your Youtube show, it could be the high gear in the transmission. the car has 124,000 miles and I take very good care of it. I notice that if give it more gas, the vibrations seems to go away but of course, the car is downshifting. Is this something that will cause me a lot of grief or just ignore it. The car is 15 years old and I bought it used. It had 105,000 already on it when I purchased it. I have no idea if the fluid as ever been changed so I am afraid to start now. The second question is in reference to my 2008 Nissan Maxima. When I start the car, I turn the switch till the motor turns over a couple of times. I let go and then start the car. I have to do that after the car sits over a few minutes. I was advised that the fuel pump could be going bad since the car has 168,000 miles. On a Nissan, I am actually driving on borrowed time. I replaced the fuel pump. Same result. I was going to buy and install new fuel injectors but you mentioned in one of your shows that they need to be balanced. This is the show where a person replaced the engine in his hummer and also the injectors and still had a misfire on number 4 cylinder. What else could be causing this. The fuel filter is in the pump. I thought that the problem could be in a leaking injector and that is why I keep loosing pressure between the pump and the engine. Any help would be appreciated.

Well you don't have to balance injectors on that old Nissan you would just buy them put them in you'd buy a set. But that's where the beamer live with it those transmissions are so complex now if it was a Toyota or something I'd say take it to a dealer and let them see if there's any reprogramming available and sometimes that can help an old transmission but I BMW the deal is all crooks and I'll just start selling this stuff. Many of them do that with that mileage when they're going uphill they're just wearing out
