Moist Gearbox

Slipperyshoe · 07-01-2015, 08:07 AM

Not quite as exciting as the title alludes to, but just had my first service at 13k (I'm determined to get 3 in under service pack) and they noted moisture around the gearbox so have to go in next week for further investigation. Anyone else had this?

I'm so pleased I haven't had the remap (yet!) as was going to get this imminently!

Anyone else had this?

Probably just BMW not used to a mud plugger 4x4 having a moist gearbox. Ford any streams recently?

Not had on BMW yet.

However mine if anything is likely to be mucky and moist, as was up a dirty track at weekend.

Me too

Was at a welfare dog event on Sunday with all that bloody rain.

I was almost praying for the perfect photograph.

My F31 towing out a 520d.

Unfortunately someone put some straw down on the slippy slope.

However some people did have a couple cracked front plastics, especially an A3 that almost bottomed his car in a water trench lol.
