I have a 91 325i with a 5 speed.
The transmission has about 15000 on it since a rebuild. The car has 135k on it. Its been cared for very well, is a two owner car. All records since new.
Anyway, for some reason it all of a sudden started whurring in reverse.. Then it became hard to get it into 4th.. sometimes would grind and pop out. Then all of a sudden it was hard to get into any gear, sometimes wouldn't even go in... it would slip all the time, pop out of gear, make grinding noises, all kinds of things. I stopped driving it because I didn't have the money to fix it. But now I NEED to get it repaired.
Today I went to take it for a drive just for the hell of it.. guess what.. No problems. It was shifting smooth and everything.
Anyway, I am a bit perplexed.. So before I assume it magically fixed itself, I'd like to get some ideas on what could be going on.
Thanks,
keith
