Hey i just bought a bmw and its my first one. i want to start fixing it up but it needs a few things first. All the gears work except for reverse i was wondering if anyone new what it could be or how to fix it. or if i just need to get a new 5 speed tranny.

does it happen more while shifting?> or just while normal driving? do you notice anything more happening with the sound, like while driving over bumps and potholes?
