Description of the problem | With an smg transmission, when accelerating from a complete stop, there is a loud thump in the rear of the car as if somebody hit you from behind. It is very startling and i am sure something is wrong with the car. This is a common complaint among all bmw m5 drivers. I am surprised nobody placed a complaint about this yet. |
