Hi everyone. I have a 2008 335i e93 with 170k miles on what I'm assuming is the original motor and transmission. Very recently, I noticed that the transmission felt terrible, the car was shifting extremely rough, and a transmission malfunction would pop up on the screen whenever the car attempted to shift. It was so bad that I couldn't even drive the car a couple of feet without it getting the malfunction error. A couple of days ago, I serviced the transmission by replacing the fluid and all the valve body seals. However, it still has the same symptoms. Also, occasionally when I put the car into drive or reverse, it'll coast like it's in neutral and just rev. I have to put it in park and back into gear to get the transmission to engage and get the car to move. When I read the code(s) on MHD it says the fault code is 2AD0, and on INPA it's giving me 4F87, 4F89, 4F90, 4F83, and 4F81 for the EGS. I've been trying to find a solution online but haven't had any success. I would really appreciate some input/advice because I don't have the $$ to do a transmission replacement atm. Thanks!

Hey there, If I were you, I would invest that money and time in getting your tranny diagnosed by a reputable transmission shop first. I went through this last year and ended up rebuilding my tranny.
