Bump... We need more responses to the poll!!!

I see there is not a poll option for "I got a manual car because I heard about the autos and didn't want to deal with that."

Coincidentally I have no transmission problems at 75k miles.

I have not had my X for a month and a half
 
The dealership has been playing a blame game between dinan and bmw for three weeks now! My X is a 02 4.4 with 72k and dinan S-2 package and this week the dealership is puting in the second trans. cause the first one they put in was no good. Talk about trans. problems! Thank god it's under cpo and I do agree that a car that we all spend alot of clams on should not blow trans. under 100k! I miss my X:saad:

is Dinan BMW certified?

I feel for ya, john, hang in there. A month and a half is BS!!! Either your dealer didn't do a good job the first time or they never did anything at all. I just can't believe this situation that your in. There are a lot of maybes here. Like for example, maybe the Dinan S2 package is what caused the problem, but then again, I'm sure others have the same package and have no problems. Maybe the dealer just is stupid? Maybe not, either way, try to get this fixed, and maybe later on, find some where else to have work done on your car. I'm at 90k with no problems, thank God, knock on wood. But you never know. Maybe right when my warranty ends, my car will blow a trans??? Then again, "Maybe not".... GL buddy...

Always remeber the lemon laws. Depending on the state if a vehicle needs to be serviced numerous times (some states as low as 3 or 4) for the same problem with no resolve you have a lemon on your hands.

I think it is down right sad that a vehicle the level of a BMW should have transmission problems. Unfortunately we do not have that many responses to the poll but right now we are running at about 25% of respondants with transmission problems.
