BMW 530 owners have reported 2 problems related to transmission gear slipping (under the power train category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have a 2004 BMW 545i which has been experiencing a "transmission slip" over the past year. This is a known problem by BMW and something that is not an isolated incident on my vehicle. I have been informed by BMW employees "off the record" that my car has a problem and needs to be bought back by BMW and replaced. I am currently dealing with BMW of north America and have sent them a complaint as I have had my car serviced approximately 5-6 times over the past year for the same problem with no solution. I wanted to file a complaint with the NHTSA as well because it is apparent that BMW is trying to cover up a large and potentially dangerous problem with their vehicles. I have almost been in 2 accidents because of this issue and I feel for the safety of my family when driving this vehicle.

I have a 2004 525i BMW that periodically has a transmission slippage when driving from a stop or moving into 1st and 2nd gear. The car jumps forward and if not careful, I could accidentally hit something that is not in my control. Concord BMW has tried to recreate the problem and has only done so once. They said it was a software problem but has not been able to fix. Recently, I filed a complaint with them and now they tell me since it can not be recreated there is nothing they can do.
