This last couple of weeks I’ve had an intermittent drive train error, that has appeared and disappeared on a couple of occasions.
The car is a 2019 BMW x2 xdrive automatic, it’s covered approx 31k miles.
After the car bas been drove for approximately 50 miles on the motorway, and once the car has shifted down to 1st gear this has where the message has appeared. When the car then pulls away the car then fails to shift up through the gears and sticks in 1st gear. High revs no speed. When the car is turned off and then on again, the car goes back to normal.
Has any one else had any issues like this? I’ve booked in with BMw for a diagnosti, will they be able to see any information despite the message clearing?
There are many forum threads talking about Drivetrain errors on older models. There can be many reasons: engine, transmission, EGR… From your description it seems to be a transmission problem but if your car goes back to normal after an on/off it might not be a big deal, maybe more of an electronic issue. Make sure you come back with an update after your diagnostic :)
