searched through almost 500 threads on tranny issues on E53 4.4i it seems everyone has a little bit of everyone else's problem lol (sorry it is not funny)
but there is really no real solution to the problem if you have already reprogrammed, flush and changed fluid, but to just replace tranny?? there has got to be a specific part doing this, or is it by the time you find it just easier to replace the tranny
