    Hi i have a problem with my bmw e39 528 auto after I replaced abs sensor the trans won't shift gears by it self only 1 to 2 but If I use steptronic it shifts really good in all gears, it has no abs codes or trans codes I have also tried alot of abs sensors but I can't find the problem?

    I have a friend who went the same issue. Is your 528i pre mid 98 (build date) ? If so there's different P/Ns that may be causing your issue

    Fronts are 34521182159, rears same number but ending in 60

    I'd rather die or take a walk before driving an E60 or any BMW made after Y2K.

    In his case, replacing a frayed wires ABS sensor cured it.
