[QUOTE="yeecher, post: 245776, member: 6301"] hi all, looks like auto transmission problems will haunt us for life. it has haunted me from e36 to e60. good news is my mechanic who is a bmw specialist (mostly for recon cars) said that he has never come across a failed transmission in any e60's. many many failed transmission for e36, e39 & e46. r37720 i would suggest you to explore all options before replacing the transmission. as for me, no concern now but i have plans to supercharge my e60 530i to bring it up to 340hp. anyone knows if the standard auto transmission can take the power? according to the supercharger dealer, there should be no problem (expected reply from him). but if 530i transmission is the same as 545i or 535d (huge power) then there really should be no problems. i cant seem to find this info anywhere. anyone with info or advice i would really appreciate if you could share it with me here [/QUOTE]
