Welcome.
Have you tried the auto box reset to see if that smoothes it out? I assume you are talking about the clunk when slowing down where it jerks into second gear or so just before you come to a stop?

Welcome aboard, and you'll find plenty of folks here able to offer advice based on their own experiences. Some of us have had transmission problems too. A reset is the simplest first step.
What problem are you actually experiencing?

Hi ex and welcome,
I had something similar to this with my last e53, does it happen while cruising and then say going for an overtake or while slowing down, like at a roundabout and then wanting to accelerate?

Hi Ex and welcome aboard 
guessing from your your sign off strip you have an e70 not e53. The e70 had a new gearbox when launched compared to the e53's (both 6speed) and as such the aformention soft reset would be related to e53. If this issue happens during acceleration/kickdown would take a guess that is more likely to be something to do with the electronic connection between the throttle pedal and the gearbox and not the gearbox itself. Have you tried a full throttle run in manual mode i.e. you selecting each gear? may be worth a go. Also does this jerky issue happen in 'sport' mode again worth playing with. Good luck and keep us informed.
