When it starts throwing codes and producing hard shifts it’s typically the metronic sleeves, gummy valve body, and dirty fluid/filter. All stuff that can be fixed without transmission removal. About $5-600 do it yourself. Maybe a bit more depending on parts cost. BMW parts go up and down in price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clutch replacement can be spendy if you need a full rebuild with flywheel. Upwards of 2k just in parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too tight journal to rod clearance and tight side clearance. Couple that with the 10w60 spec oil and it’s a time bomb. The particles from the wearing bearings also take out the vanos. Fix that stuff and it’s a 400,000 mile motor the way it’s built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runs great , is in really good shape and everything functions the way it should. Car is very quick and I was shocked how composed it is even in 1st and 2nd gear.

AKIQPilot Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Nice car Ben. You can definitely have fun with that. Im not familiar with the SMG transmission. Is it a semi auto or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a semi auto or something? It's an electronically actuated clutch basically. It behaves just like a clutch only there is no pedal. You shift with the paddles or shifter. It will idle in 1st gear though so not 100% like a clutch. I've driven it about 120 miles now and I'm pretty used to it. I would still trade it for a manual mostly for reliability but it's fun to drive and shifts are very quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
