1995 BMW 5 Series 525i review from North America
"If you can live with the maintanence it is a good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The manual transmission went bad at 135,000.
The trans likes to pop out of first gear.
General comments?
I did not expect to replace a manual transmissions at 135,000 miles.
Very comfortable ride and the performance is good.
