[QUOTE="ayek, post: 113059, member: 2222"] Hi Autochild, Read this and presumed that you are an expert of auto trans. Wonder if you could asses the auto trans condition of my newly bought E30. It's an 87 320i. I have only driven new cars before so don't know what to comment on my E30 auto trans performance. Generally, if compared to my driving experience of new cars, the performance is quite sluggish and inefficient. Also noted that the gearbox shifter rod (or whatever they call it) is a bit warm after long driving. Sometimes a bit of heat/burn smell too near the gear box. When asked general mechanics, the responded that it's normal for old cars. Is that so? is it worth for me to spend money to maintain this auto trans? Also, checked the ATF level and it seemed ok. So finally how do I contact you? Where are you located? I was told to look for Brendan. Thanks and awaiting for your reply. [/QUOTE]
