    Transmission slips

    Hello to all,
    I have a 1999 740i sport with 200k. My transmission slips a little(not hard) going into 3rd gear. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.

    Hey Tim,

    I would check the basics first. Fluid level if it is good then go and get a couple tubes of Dr. Shudder trans fix at the parts store. Might take care of the problem for a while longer.
