Hi!

I have 2003 X5 and warranty running out. Friend of mine noted that transmission has a problem. Basically, what happens is that when shifting from 5th gear to neutral - shifter stays below 5th gear and not returning to center. It's not always issue while driving, but it does look unusual. You have to push it to the left to let it "click" into center.

I also have problem shifting into 1st gear. This is occasional. It wouldn't shift from first try on dead stop. I can't duplicate it to show at dealership.

Is is a problem? Do I have to push dealership into looking harder? Any advice?

Thanks!
