Anyone buy a rebuilt x5 transmission from European Transmission in Georgia?

A bro-in-law owns a tranny joint in NJ, but he does not do any warrantied trans for 12 months; in his opin, it is almost like here's your part, good luck, in terms of the short duration. He does a few BMWs of varying species per week, and offers several levels of warranty and a couple options of what the "new" trans is, but no warranty as short as 12 months.

He does not ship; only does work in house, and I am not soliciting as he is as busy as a one legged man in an azz kicking contest, but that is his opin on a "one year warranty trans", fwiw.

12 months is a terrible warranty, imo. 2+ years at a minimum. I'd go with the having your tranny rebuilt route...while you're at it, be sure all sensors are replaced, torque converter thoroughly inspected along with oil pump.

Great stuff Thank You. If anyone is interested here is the company that I am considering buying the rebuilt transmission from www.europeantransmissions.com/

just to keep this alive, I ended up purchasing a rebuilt transmission from 1 Stop in Arizona. They were easier to buy from than European and they take credit cards. Should get it next week and will update this post after it gets installed.
