The "part" or transmission is $6,200 to $6,800 depending where they order. Labor is $1,800 to $2,500. That's not include anything else that breaks when they are repairing it.

The trans can not be repaired, BMW will not allow it to happen for some reason other than to rape customers out of money.

I called a few shops and they said "we don't like to mess with their transmissions, they are tricky and break very easily."

Awesome, now I have a $20k paperweight!
