"Stick-slip" effect in accelerator pedal module
E38, E39, E46, E52, E53, E65, E66, R50, R53 / M47TU, M54, M57, M62TU, N40, N42,
N62, S54, S62, W10, W11
Complaint:
In unfavorable frictional conditions, minor movements of accelerator pedal can only be
made with sudden jerks ("stick-slip" effect).
This occurs principally at high ambient temperatures or when hot air from the heating
system has been fed into the footwell for a prolonged period of time.
Important:
As the operation/movement of the accelerator pedal is not affected, this is purely a
matter of comfort for the customer. It is not relevant to safety.
Affected
vehicles:
E38, E39, E46, E52, E53, E65, E66, R50, R53
with M47TU, M54, M57, M62TU, N40, N42, N62, S54, S62, W10, W11
Manufacturing period: up to July 2002.
Remedy:
In case of customer complaint, replace the accelerator pedal module and, if necessary, the
adapter plate.
Procedure:
Remove the accelerator pedal module.
Please refer to Repair Instructions 35
40 001.
Important:
If it is not possible to pull the
accelerator pedal module off
after it has been levered out,
the retainer has caught on the
second hook.
If this happens, lever it out a
second time.
