[QUOTE="fashraf, post: 18580, member: 15914"] Need help from all E46 sifus here. Recently my expansion tank leaks and I went to get it replaced. They asked me to check the water level the next day as they worry that air bubble might got trapped in the water cooling system. They told me it might cause the car overheated. But when I check the next day everything was just fine.But the 2nd day after that, I notice the transmission warning lights up intermittently. Normally after short drive. When this happen the gear shifting jerks badly. Sometime the "D" indicator also dissapear while driving. The "R" also sometime dissapear while reversing which cause the reverse light didn't lights up.I asked a different workshop to check and they have replaced a "transmission switch" which located under the gearbox and caused me rm1500 inclusive of replacing the transmission oil and filters. But sadly the problem, is still there. :( Just exactly like before any repairing!Any relation with the expansion tank replacement before? what could be the problem? Really need you guys help!!!!!
