Blown transmission

[Flick]

I lost 2nd and 5th gear the other day. They just spin now. I haven't opened it up yet. I ordered a rebuilt tranny from a salvage yard. It was just odd to suddenly loose 2 gears with no warning.

so you could still roll... just had to double shift from 1st to 3rd and 4th was your high gear... is that right...

Thats what it is doing. 2nd and 5th give me no forward motion.

Much more cost effective to swap than buy parts to fix.  Good trannys out there for a couple hundred.  BMW wants that much for a shift fork.  :loco:

I am swapping trannys. It wasn't just the cost, it was having to wait for parts to come from Germany. And one of these days I may rebuild this tyranny, it never hurts to have a spare.
