JDN, My dealer only sold one E60 SMG and mine is it. Mine is the only one in for service as well. They PUMA'd it last time and replaced the stuff listed above. They PUMA'd this again this morning at 8:30. I will wait to see.

To answer your question, I haven't heard of this problem coming up with any frequency on non SMG cars. My steptronic has been fine for its young life.

Maybe I'm just lucky but my SMG has worked flawlessly. I'll order SMG on each new BMW -- as long as they don't decide to stop offering it...
Hope everything gets worked out for you pennetta...
