He stated that BMW is aware of a problem, but that for anything to be fixed the diagnostic machine would have to report certain fault codes and that if such codes do not come back for my car, the jerk, etc. we felt is within normal tolerances - and that others have reported similar concerns, which have fallen short of resolution. $100k+ luxury sedan and the transmission is not smooth!? WTF!?
Feel your pain ,did they do anything yet about it
