E70 4.8 Transmission Issues
I just wanted to post to see if anyone is sharing the transmission oddities that I am experiencing. I have about 1700mi on the car and the transmission seems to do odd things. I can feel downshifts when coming to a stop and sometimes when I am pulling into a parking spot the downshift makes the car jump. The most frustrating part is that the transmission seems to get confused and not respond very quickly and sometimes takes a bit long to upshift. I have taken the car to the dealership and they said it passed all the tests, but that does not mean the programming is the best. I drove an E53 and the transmission seems flawless. I love my X5 though. Just an early production issue I imagine.
