fresh tranny rebuild
Well the x5 is back on the road after its transmission rebuild..The guys at all done transmission in pottstown pa took could care of it and keep me informed the whole way..the owner took pictures of the trans broke down so I could see the insides as they worked on it..so it appears the torque converter had come apart and the trans had many low speed issues...if anyone in southern pa needs trans work for a BMW all down transmission is the place to go...
