No other issues though other than the fact that the car was built without the factory standard alarm system. BMW NA sent me a check for that though.
Can you give more details on the tranny noise? Were any error codes stored? I'm hearing a metallic buzz/belt whine type noise when accelerating, not sure if it's the tranny though.
