[QUOTE="dicsitar, post: 727716, member: 22007"] Hi, Whenever my car, a BMW E39 525i, runs over deep puddle of water on the road, the transmission shuts off and goes into 'Transmission Fail-Safe Mode'. This has happened more than once. And each time my mechanic hoists up the car and clears water from 2 connectors beneath the transmission pan. I asked him if this can be resolved permanently; and he said no. So I am posing this question to the forum: Is there a permanent resolution to this problem? [/QUOTE]
