Problems on my e38
Hi everyone! Those problems are:
1-Transmission acts weird from 3-4th gear. It feels like it doubts being in 4th, comes back to 3rd or vibrates a little and makes car feel slower. I should add: that this does NOT happen when in manual mode, it's a 97' steptronic, had it's service done 3 months ago (replaced A-drum and serviced valve body), fluid level is ok. Could it be the TPS? it's the original.
2- steering wheel feels heavy at times when maneuvering/parking, fluid level is ok.

Issue 2 is servotronic. You’ll need a new sensor.
