Hi Team
Been a long time since I posted when I had my E30. Became responsible and bought an auto 2006 e90 320i a few years back. Not sure if that was a fantastic idea.
It recently started having issues with gear changes. Please see below
- taking off from zero feels like the gears are not engaging then suddenly does and give an uncomfortable nudge
- going into second revs go up high and goes into second quite hard.
- as you are slowing down to zero at a stop sign it goes into first rough
- going from park to drive up the driveway it rolls back.
- if you change it to tiptronic mode as you are going it automatically goes into DS mode.
- took it to a local mechanic who said the diff was also in bad condition which was replacemtn and ATF replaced.
- problem remains!
Anybody else seen such issues before?
Going down the road of getting work done on the transmission seems more then the value of the car. I wonder if a manual conversion may be better? Anyone got any idea of costs or what could be wrong?
