No movement in Reverse when the car is cold.
Recently when I start up the car in the morning, the reverse does not work and I have to wait a few minutes till the car moves. The car moves forward fine, it is only in reverse that I see the problem.
We have a very good BMW mechanic in town and had him checked it out. He thinks I should drive it now and go to him if it stopped moving in reverse for good. He will pull out and rebuilt the tranny for about $2K. The same job would be $3500 at the dealer.
Even though the car is in great great shape I feel it is not worth to spend 2 grands on a car that's worth about $4500 to $5500. What do you think?
Any help is appreciated.
