*E32 Warning*

Transmission blew

Stupid thing has been teasing me by shifting smoothly appearing to get better only to totally die on me. Anyone out there know what a rebuild should cost?

Warning to anyone buying an E32--find a manual transmission. I know they're rare but unless you find one with a service record on the trans it will bite you later. Since I've bought mine I've learned that the average life span on the zf 4 22 hp is around 150k. Mine died at 157k. If it shifts hard at all don't get it, don't listen to anyone who makes excuses as to why it does it or trys to justify the reason. I had a powertrain warantee that expired at 156k, irony huh? Now I'm stuck with a rather large paper weight that still requires payments and insurance.
