SOUND FAMILIAR ?? (1044 views) 
Message:
The BMW E60 has the same ZF 6HP26 as the later S-Type, XK8 and XJ. Look at the "Situation" below in the BMW TSB.

IDENTICAL to what I have been saying, absolutely IDENTICAL !!!
(What I have commented on for the last 2.5 years : www.thelurch.com/lurching_zf_transmission.htm)

My Gearbox still LURCHES. My Dealer does not acknowledge any fault and is not offering any solution. The saga continues ...
