About the BMW Transmission

The transmission transfers power from the engine to the wheels, allowing your vehicle to change speeds and reverse direction. It contains a complex system of gears, clutches, and hydraulics (automatic) or gears and synchros (manual). Transmission failure can make your vehicle undriveable and is one of the most expensive repairs. A quality used transmission offers significant savings over rebuilt or new units.

Signs of Failure

Know when your BMW transmission needs replacement:

  • Slipping gears or loss of power
  • Delayed or harsh engagement
  • Grinding or clunking when shifting
  • Transmission fluid leak (red/brown fluid)
  • Burning smell from transmission
  • Won't shift into certain gears
  • Check engine or transmission warning light
  • Vehicle won't move in gear
  • Whining or humming noise
  • Shuddering during acceleration

Replacement Info

Transmission replacement is a major job requiring professional equipment in most cases. The process involves: lifting and supporting the vehicle, removing exhaust and drivetrain components, disconnecting transmission cooler lines and electrical connectors, supporting and removing the transmission (often 150-400 lbs), installing the replacement unit with proper torque specifications, and programming/adapting the new unit to the vehicle's computer. Used transmissions must be an exact match for your vehicle's engine, drivetrain, and model year.
