BMW X5 shuddering at 60-90 km/h, possible transmission issue on BMW X5

Some BMW X5 owners report experiencing shuddering between 60-90 km/h, which could indicate a potential transmission issue. This shuddering during gear shifts may signal a serious problem with the transmission. Additionally, unevenly worn or incorrectly fitted tires can contribute to this shuddering, particularly during acceleration from low speeds. While some owners have found temporary relief by adding an anti-shudder chemical to the transmission, the issue may return. It is advisable for owners with vehicles still under warranty to have the shuddering checked to rule out any significant transmission problems. Common causes of these transmission issues include contaminated fluid, which may necessitate flushing, routine maintenance, or even repair, rebuild, or replacement of the transmission. Therefore, it is recommended for affected owners to consult a qualified mechanic or a BMW specialist for a thorough inspection and diagnosis.
