[QUOTE="Zipperhead, post: 9678, member: 7294"] The gearbox was fine until today when reverse refused to engage. Took it to my mechanic and there was no leaks, full oil and by fiddling a little, reverse worked at 25% power. He took a quick test-drive and he said most likely the whole thing is trash, but can only confirm when disassembled. Have been quoted Rm9500 for a recon unit :eek: Has anyone had a similar problem? Mine is a 530i so is there any specific gearbox I should get? Or should I take it to a UDM specialist with a proper diagnostic computer? [/QUOTE]
