94 325i tranny

[Richard Welty <rwelty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

i got the following note from my father with respect to a 94 325i belonging
to a friend of his. the gist of the issue is that he's being told that his
tranny is shot and he's being told it can't be rebuilt/repaired.

any insights would be appreciated.

thanks,
  richard

Question re:BMW -  Bud Baynard has a 325 i, the big engine.  The
transmission is dual, via a button push from automatic to stick shift.  He
started loosing power and he was told his transmission had gone.  He was
quoted a price on a new transmission and told the transmission could not be
rebuilt, he had to have a new one.  Does this seem reasonable?  He wants
to 
make sure he was not taken.  Any thing on the BMW net work re
transmissions?
