Next is the Alternator and I'm sure my problems will go away.

Also, our X5 has to be warmed up for a few minutes or the tranny slips bad. I too don't believe about the lifetime trans fluid. Gonna look into replacing the filter/fluid soon.

Your transmission is slipping and you have a trans failsafe--why do you think the problem is the battery or the alternator?

Have you done any troubleshooting or had the computer read for faults?
