Hey All,
My 2001 x5 3.0i has been perfect for years. has 136,000 miles. sat outside in about 25 degrees for one day (first cold day of the year) and when i went to start it it was barely crawling at idle, then when I reved it it would barely move but RPM's would go up. I let it get up to normal operating temp and it was perfectly normal. Coincidentally, my guage cluster was completely unoperational as well. I drove home and put in the 45 degree garage and 4 hours later it was perfectly normal.
Im guessing this TCC solenoid is what is wrong with my X5, or at least I hope since it doesn't sound incredibly difficult to replace.
Your input with having some experience with this particular problem would be greatly appreciated.
One thing to note I changed the tranny fluid with Mobil 1 about 10,000 miles ago, no issues to start with, and no issues since then.
