HELP...BMW E39 520i transmission shift problem!

Postby caradict » February 19th, 2016, 8:03 pm

Good night guys...problems..! As of recent I've been getting this problem. Sometimes when you shift to drive or reverse, the car jerks into gear like a backlash and the inst panel display says "trans fail safe". And if you try to drive off the car seems to pull of in 2nd or 3rd gear. Most times,but not all the time, if you switch off and restart, things go back to normal.
Any ides, suggestions or recommendations? Or can someone suggest a really good BMW technician or mechanic? Thanks tuners.

transmission speed sensor?
is your oil level good?
oil burnt?
valve body?
does it happen all the time or when transmission gets hot?

Hey you got some pulse generators than tend to fail on electronic trannys. Do a diagnostic and get your problems rectified.
