Transmission Solenoid Problems of BMW 750

Pre-owned vehicle -transmission issue which is not mechanical. . . Vehicle did not shift to reverse from park. Local BMW dealer says new transmission is needed. Research indicates it to be a problem with the vehicle electronics (solenoid) which sends shift signal to the transmission. BMW will not say this is an inherent issue with its product as evidenced by the number of similar complaints. When vehicle is in motion on any roadway at 40-55 mph, a series of fault codes are displayed on the dashboard [transmission fault-drive moderately], and subsequently the vehicle will stall and not engage into gear. Efforts to prove that this is not owner/consumer responsibility due to the internal nature of the fault(s) are not accepted by the BMW dealer/company. The cost of company stated repairs ($3500-$8000) are beyond what the value of the vehicle is and financial ability to pay.

BMW 2013 750li drivetrain malfunction re-occurring causing rough start and while driving highway 485 vanos solenoids & valve covers have been replaced three times within 7 months on my vehicle that has 22,000 miles. My full service warranty is going to expire at the end of 2016. According to recent reports BMW is aware of this issue on the n63 engine and should have a recall on various parts. The bolts that secure the housing for the variable camshaft timing adjustment (vanos) unit can loosen over time and may possibly break. The engine may have reduced power or stall. An engine stall increases the risk of a crash. Having the service bulletin number b001314, the recall may take several days for each vehicle involved and could include replacement of the fuel injectors, mass airflow sensors, battery, crankcase vent lines, fuel pressure sensor, the engine¿s vacuum pump and last, but certainly not least, replacement of the timing chain. . BMW in some cases will offer an extended full service warranty.
