E32 Trans Program

I experianced a similar occurance about a week ago. So I had a certified BMW mechanic due a diagnostic. In short, the transmission needs to be replaced.

I don't mean to imply that this is the case with your vehicle ( mine has over 200,000 miles on it), but having it checked out will take the wonder away.

Some symptoms I am experiancing presently include a rough downshift when coming to a slow stop, or a sudden and inconsistent hard shift when accelerating.

I really don't want to part with mine so I am apt to replace the tranny; however, I am looking to save as much as I can without sacrificing performance and reliability. Yet, I"ve read that the E32 transmissions can be problematic. Has the valve body been done on your transmission yet?
