Consumer Description

THE "TRANSMISSION FAULT DRIVE MODERATELY, DRIVE TO THE NEAREST BMW DEALERSHIP" IS THE MESSAGE THAT I GOT WHEN I WAS DRIVING ONE DAY A FEW WEEKS AGO, I HAVE 77,000 MILES AND I HAD JUST HAD A TUNE UP. OF COURSE I TOOK THE CARE TO BMW IMMEDIATELY AND FOUND OUT THAT THE POWER TRAIN WAS BAD? THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED TO THE TUNE OF $7000, I KNEW THERE WERE SOME ENGINE PROBLEMS WITH SOME OF THE BMW YEARS BUT I DIDN'T THINK 2008 SHOULD'VE HAD ANY PROBLEMS AS FAR AS THE TRANSMISSION GOING OUT AT 77,000?
