| A year ago, my gas gauge sensor went out. the car had less than 100,000 miles on it. today, my 2000 bmw 323i has 111,000 miles on it and the vehicle will not drive in any gear without a grinding sound. i almost got killed by a car behind me because i could suddenly not accelerate at a stop light and i had to get out to push the vehicle to safety. within the past few months the car would drive, but only when it was warm. now it is completely inop. this car has been well maintained! it would cost me over $4000 to get a new transmission and i still over $6000 on the car. despite thousands of complaints regarding the 2000 bmw 323i transmission failure, bmw refuses to do anything. i currently have no operable vehicle and i still have to maintain my auto loan payments and find alternate transportation to work. i have spent over $3500 in additional repairs to this vehicle on brakes, new catalytic converter sensors, trailing arm, ball bearings, etc. *tr | |||
