Re: '00 3 Series Transmission

Is the transmission problem fatal? I think that I'm finding this is a
serious defect. I have another 2000 3 Series, and I'm giving consideration
to getting my second one. I was expecting a simple issue with a stuck
solenoid or similar kind of thing. Does anybody here have any real-world
experience with transmission problems with the 2000 3 Series?

Any way you look at it, a car needing (possibly) a new tranny had
better come with a steep dscount...
