4th gear shifting chatter

Post by ecsmoot »

1987 635csi with 109,000 miles. Manual shifting into 4th gear has started with grinding and chatter unless ultradelicate with shifting maneuver. Is this gearbox likely to go bad soon? Is this something that can be rebuilt by an non-BMW transmission shop.? Is it best to buy a new or rebuilt gearbox?
