Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION HAS SUDDENLY FAILED WHILE DRIVING, ABOUT ONCE A YEAR, BEGINNING A FEW MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW. I EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND THE DISPLAY READS "DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION, MAXIMUM DRIVETRAIN OUTPUT NOT AVAILABLE. CONSULT SERVICE CENTER." PULLING OVER AND RESTARTING THE CAR MAKES THE PROBLEM GO AWAY. MANY PEOPLE ARE REPORTING SIMILAR PROBLEMS: HTTP://WWW.BIMMERFEST.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=667636 BMW REFUSES TO MAKE ANY FURTHER ATTEMPTS TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE WARRANTIED PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE IT AT WILL. *TR
