They're often easy to notice. BMW 850CSi transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood.

1995 BMW 850CSi Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your BMW? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my BMW tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 850CSi’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your 850CSi is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my 850CSi's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1995 850CSi’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your BMW. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my BMW 850CSi? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your BMW 850CSi, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who can fix my  BMW 850CSi transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for 850CSi transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my BMW 850CSi if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your 850CSi to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
