    Fail Safe Transmission Error

    niggy replied to Cljagger78's topic in BMW X5 Series Forum
    Hi My gearbox fail safe came on about six months ago and was loosing drive after coming off a motorway or fast road, Then was sticking in 3rd, So i took it to a transmission specialist in Morley near Leeds, They took the gearbox out re conditioned it and fit a new torque converter, All the lot for £1200 and it is like a new car now, Hope this helps if you want the garages number then get back to me and i will sort that out for you, Kind regards Nigel.
