Tranny popping out of fourth (archive)

[ Follow Ups ] [ M5 (E34) Message Board ] [ Msg. Board FAQ ]

Posted by Adam on March 09, 2001 at 11:14:27:

I heard this is a somewhat common problem. The car (1991 Us Spec 80K miles) is fine in every gear but fourth. In fourth, it will slip into neutral as soon as you release the gas pedal. It also seems very difficult to get it into fourth unless you rev match/double clutch on down shifts.

Any ideas on problem/solution and typical cost...should I get a rebuilt/used tranny instead?

Thanks,

-Adam-
