I've been looking at a 525 auto, currently on ebay: went to view/test drive. Car seems very nice, although service history is missing: Its not a UK car, the clocks are KM, and the spec is better. The car has been fitted with an aftermarket air filter.
The problem I found on driving is if you put your foot down to accelerate as quickly as possible, the engine races to red line, then drops into gear. Also when coming to a halt you can feel the car come out of gear.
I don't know if the 'box is in need of adjustment or its something more major. I've even wondered if the air filter could be causing the problem.
Any Ideas?
