Your guess is as good as anyone else's on the board, BMW's and ZF's. No one seems to have any clue.

hi everyone just got the x back today for the jerking problem as described in this thread when coming to a slow gradual stop...and guess what they kept the sav for a week and it still does it..the repair order says the tech and shop foreman went for a ride and tranny performs as designed..these guys couldnt get laid in a whorehoise with a fist full of fifties...anyway this is what it says on the work order...customer states when coming to a slow full stop there is a jerking from the transmission... 0000005 interrogating fault memory in diagnosing system 7574WP40L..2499000 open time job time without allowance for automatic transmission 7574WP40L..23838 could not verify - perform short test no faults in transmission check mounting ok- performed roadtest confirmed bump on stopping performed trans adaptive reset ok now roadtested by both shop foreman vehicle performs as designed..and low and behold i drove it out of the parking lot and bump was present..got home and called bmw na and now they are involved...2005 with 4.4 with 24k miles...also when i spoke to the service manager this morning i told him that my s/a told me that the tech checked the fluid level in the tranny..last i learned from this site is that the tranny is a sealed unit and no way to check fluid inside without removing the drain and fill plugs..service manager told me that they can check because there is a window on side of tranny that they can see fluid..i think he is full of poopie..can someone advise me if this window really exists...so sorry for the long post...thnanks rob

It's a window alright , but it's made of sheet metal and you need an x-ray to see through it.
At least you didn't get the "could not replicate" stamp that seems to pervade all in-warranty problems. Plus you should consider yourself lucky, last time my car was road tested for a problem, the odometer read 1 mile more than when I dropped it off. In all seriousness, wow, 24,000 miles and this frequent of a problem! Keep us updated as to what BMW will say. BTW, which version of "the lurch" would you classify as your ailment? |

Seems this is a common problem, I still havn't taken mine to the indi for a check up yet, (Stealership in Cyprus will break parts to give them something to fix, absolutely cowboy) due to time and money but will have no choice soon, (July), as the MOT is due and by parking/hand brake needs tightening up beforehand due to slight slippage.
possible solutions vary from transmission reset, transmission fluid, to transmission rebuild. No one really knows but you can be sure that many members here will post theier findings... I have tried all the home fix's from the Transmission reset to disconnecting the Battery overnight, all did nothing to fix this problem... Keep us posted... |
