Posted by LUQUETTE on September 09, 2001 at 11:16:07:

I recently replaced the cylinder head on my 1985 745i.

The transmission ran fine before the tear down, but after finally reinstalling the head and all parts, which included removal of the instrument cluster, the transmission indicator in the instrument cluster does not light up (you know P,R,N,D,3,2,1, 123) and the transmission will not shift out of 1st gear, even when I try to manually run through the gears. I am well aware of the problems with the tranny, but it was running fine before.

Anyone with a manual on these transmissions or expertise that can help me trace the source of the problem?


Any help is appreciated...
