[QUOTE="Beem, post: 21867, member: 18265"] Dear All,I own an E34 for close to a year, condition was quite ok (all at original spec)when i bought over i had all oil and fluid changed (engine/gear/differential/brake) to original.Gear shifting was very smooth and responsive and not problem in all condition.The gear shift started to take longer period for the first drive of the day since 2 months back, started to take from 100m to 1km distant for it to shift from 1st gear to 2nd.Now the gear changing from 1st to 2nd takes 2km for the first drive of the day.Basically it will shift to 2nd gear after the engine heat up (temp at middle), after that there will be no problem at all for gear shifting for the rest of the day. Everything will be as good as before, smooth and responsive.My mechanic suggest that servicing the gearbox, cleaning might helps.Anyone faced this problem before?need some advise before doing any decision, wouldn't want to do something that doesn't help.Thanks in advance for any advise.Selamat Hari Raya [/QUOTE]
