Wondering if anyone knows in Glasgow or around any good gearbox specialists who could rebuild my BMW e60 6hp19 gearbox. With a tight budget but obviously someone decent. Any suggestions, please?

Thanks for your answer mate. I have been there and unfortunately, they said it would cost over 2.5k which these days I can't really afford. I was wondering if someone could do cheaper than that by any chance? Or even look for a used gearbox and just fit in? Would that be a cheaper and better option?

It showed a problem with E clutch which means it appears for 4 5 gear, driving on those gears very occasionally gearbox goes to safe mode and shuts down to neutral until I turn off and on the engine after it again drives fine like nothing.

Yes, I have been to exactly the garage you suggesting. That's what they said, requires to rebuild:// However since then I am driving my car basically every day, and literally there is no issue with the gearbox. City/motorway roads and nothing, pushing it and still, nothing drives perfectly fine and I am very confused. Can it actually be just an error showing which needs to be cleared? Idrive doesn't show anything as well.
