Why is my BMW 5 Series hesitating?

I have a 2005 BMW 5 Series Automatic. It hesitates at take-off or low speed when the accelerator is pressed. Then shoots off after a few seconds. It's as if it doesn't know what gear to choose, then drops a gear and flies. Fine in higher gears/speeds. Software reset and filter change has been done.

Thoughts?

Hi Conor,

You've not told us which model it is, which might help us get a better answer for you, but we do know that the automatic transmission in the E60/E61 5 Series suffers from oil leaks. It may be that your gearbox has a problem because of that.
