hi everyone just got the x back today for the jerking problem as described in this thread when coming to a slow gradual stop...and guess what they kept the sav for a week and it still does it..the repair order says the tech and shop foreman went for a ride and tranny performs as designed..these guys couldnt get laid in a whorehoise with a fist full of fifties...anyway this is what it says on the work order...customer states when coming to a slow full stop there is a jerking from the transmission... 0000005 interrogating fault memory in diagnosing system 7574WP40L..2499000 open time job time without allowance for automatic transmission 7574WP40L..23838 could not verify - perform short test no faults in transmission check mounting ok- performed roadtest confirmed bump on stopping performed trans adaptive reset ok now roadtested by both shop foreman vehicle performs as designed..and low and behold i drove it out of the parking lot and bump was present..got home and called bmw na and now they are involved...2005 with 4.4 with 24k miles...also when i spoke to the service manager this morning i told him that my s/a told me that the tech checked the fluid level in the tranny..last i learned from this site is that the tranny is a sealed unit and no way to check fluid inside without removing the drain and fill plugs..service manager told me that they can check because there is a window on side of tranny that they can see fluid..i think he is full of poopie..can someone advise me if this window really exists...so sorry for the long post...thnanks rob
