| Description of the problem | My transmission reverse gear failed for the second time april of this year. The clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, etc was replaced in may of this year (06). In october of this year i had my transmission replaced (my third!!) for the reverse gear failure. While the service department had the tranny out they discovered that my clutch was shot, as well as the flywheel. This would be the third clutch and flywheel. Thanks goodness the clutch was still under warranty. I have an 86 bmw with 270k miles and it has the same drivetrain!!! *nm |
