X5 Auto Gearbox problems

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Does anyone know what can be wrong with my 2002 3.0d sport, the garbox seems to  have started to change gear earlier than normal and when i put my foot down slightly it clunks down, also when i take it to 4000rpm it pulls back and stutters, this has started happening since a service maybe that is just coincidence?
anyone?

	I would change oils firstly and give it a filter service as well to see if that makes any difference. If not get it checked by gearbox specialist

	Don't know where I heard it but apparently early X5 models had gearbox problems. I'd take it to a specialist just in case it gets worse with use.
