Burnt transmission fluid

2013 X5d 67,000 CPO Til June ‘19


over last ten months, SUV has been to dealer for various issues,, (standard trunk rattle, regular oil changes, rear diff replacement...yeah that happened)...

Every time I [customer] states “ transmission down shifts hard at speed, manual shift is sluggish...” and every time tech states “can not repeat fault, preforming as described”


So yesterday, I checked out the trans fluid... smell: burnt and color: black !

https://www.zf.com/global/media/medi...t_50145_EN.pdf


Following the guide linked above, page 5 “automatic transmission failure “

Had AAA tow to dealership, whom I have an oil consumption test scheduled with, because the digital oil gauge is moving up and down, all within the green range, drive 10 miles, full max, drive 10 more,drops to half, then 1/4... then jumps back up,,, all random.

And still awaiting parts for two open recalls, airbag and idler pulley bolt...


Gonna be a fun conversation with Service Manager...
