So how they came to the diagnoses is anybodys guess.

Is there anyone here who can shed light on this problem. It only seems to happen when the fluid is cold, once warmed up i can give it the beans and it wont slip gear.

Ive ordered the esso oil and the bmw filter and will attempt a oil change when they arrive.

Most likely the ATF level is low. ATF contract (Shrink in volume) when it is cold and exapnds when it is hot.
