The vibration is so violent that the whole car feels like it has massaging seats. The grind is so loud that it can definitely be heard by everyone in the car, probably the people in the car next to me too. It makes me cringe. I feel bad for my car.

When everything gets resolved I will definitely have the fluid changed to the redline by a reputable indy BMW shop. I would hate to think that the fluid caused it in the first place.



BMW still hasn't gotten back to me to let me know if I can bring it by just to show them before my appointment. Until then, slow shifts under 4k rpm.
Could be a bad engine or transmission mount.
