Consumer Description

I HAD NO MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH MY 2000 BMW 323CI UNTIL TODAY. WENT TO REVERSE OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TRIED REVERSING AGAIN, NOTHING HAPPENED. TURNED THE CAR OFF, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, TURNED IT BACK ON, PUT IT IN REVERSE, NOTHING HAPPENED. HAD TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE PARKING SPOT AND DROVE FORWARD WITH NO PROBLEMS. MADE IT BACK TO MY WORK, PARKED IN THE SPOT AND TRIED REVERSING TO SEE IF IT WORKED, AND IT DID. RANDOM, WEIRD. CALLED MY AUTO MECHANIC AND HE SAID THAT THIS IS TYPICAL OF BMWS WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING BAD. RESEARCHED OTHER SIMILAR OCCURRENCES AND IT SEEMS THAT THIS A COMMON ISSUE FOR BMWS RANGING FROM LATE 90S TO EARLY 2000S. *TR
