If you have pre LCI car then you have push/ pull on both paddles.

LCI / DCT paddles have right for + and left for -

makkan00 · 01-03-2015, 04:01 PM

You both shifters are same.
From the memory when you push, it downshifts.
When you pull it upshifts.

But both paddles does the same job unlike LCI cars which have upshift on right hand paddle and downshift on left hand paddle.

jigger · 01-03-2015, 04:03 PM

i think you can use either paddle left or right whatever you are comfortable with so pull for up a gear and push for down on pre lci...

andydutton · 01-03-2015, 04:50 PM

Yeah, as another auto owner, pull towards on either paddle for up shift. Away from you for downshift. Simples.

strange because my old 335d when i pushed the paddle in towards me like normal dsg paddles shift in audi it shifted down a gear .

is there any way i can just have left paddle for - shift and right paddle for + shift?

Yes m3 paddles

Not necessarily...
I have a 2009 LCI 330D E91 Auto MSport and it has +/- on both sides.

If only you could code this differently, both my paddles work the same.

its odd because my old 335d worked DCT way im sure but i didnt have it long enough to play around with the paddles, majority i just had it in D

Individual paddle shifts came in around 2010 (along with the modified heater panel)
It is relatively simple to change the +/- (earlier) type for the later type paddles - or M3 paddles if you prefer.
To change the later type to the earlier is not as simple as the new type use pull-up resistors rather than just plain switches.

I should have said
'LCI paddle shifters' than LCI cars

E30 sam · 01-04-2015, 06:03 AM

I really want to change my car to a '10' LCI so I get the new nav and the updated paddles. The thing is I'd probably only get £6k for my car and the ones I want are more like £16k which is a lot of money considering there is nothing wrong with my car. So I might just go for something a year newer that is auto and fit the LCI paddles, if I was going to do this what sort of money would I be looking at?
