Good evening gentleman , wanted to thank you all for a great wealth of knowledge that i have gained over the last couple months lurking in the background.
I have question and hope , i have a 2012 825i that i purchase with 60 hrs on it mint condition and have had it out on the farm a couple times over the last month. this morning i thought i was in low gear ,after checking it was not, the RPM'S for the MPH were way to high. I checked and double checked all i knew to look at and saw no issues. All the linkage looked great .
Once i got it back to the shop i made sure there was no trash in the belt area and even went as far to loosed the top of the belt cover to look in with a flash light and all looked ok.
i can clearly tell the difference when a slight power brake it applied in low and high so i am sure it is not tranny related . It feels as if maybe it is slipping at high rpms and the rev limiter hit in high gear at a speed of about 25
hope this makes since and you can give me a little help. Thanks
