Hi all
I am new here and new with a 2005 M5 i bought used with 50k km. Just after buying it got the car to a long 2 weeks trip and i am now 2000km from base station... On the highway in Italy i saw for the first time the "Transmission fault, error". It comes quite consistently, with around 2500-3000 rpm and 6th or 7th gear. After this happened (Or despite this) i went up a mountain road to see how the lady behaves under stress (could not help it... :biggrin: ) . Metaphysical experience and most important no Transmission fault whatsoever...
The problem only happens around 2500-3000 rpm when floor it with 6-7 gear. But having also read the forums i am concerned that the clutch might have started to slip. Whether the transmission fault happens or not the rpms jump a bit, then come down and then normal acceleration starts.
I have videos that may help you form an opinion: First Transmission fault with 7th gear:
then with 6th gear:
and finally a case where there is no transmission fault but you see what makes me concerned with the clutch slipping
As i have 2500km on the road till i am home... You can see i am a bit concerned....
??????
any help??
