I have an one year old 320i exe / auto and just had some major problem with the car. only 10,000kms

yesterday when it happen the car jerked in 1st gear when stop at traffic light when go on green without even pressing hard on accelator. now becomes 3 out of five when stop at traffic light it happens. (an auto car ! and I looked like an bad manual driver at the lights)

Today it got worse as when I drives, it revs to 5-6k revs and hold the gear, I had to release the acc. to drop the gear ..hardly getting any power even eith high revs and I am not even flooring it... later in the afternoon the car jerks worsen even reversing from the drive way. Now it even stalls (on auto!!) when reverse or in low gear on the drive way. Had became so unstable I had to stop driving it.

Please advise if you have ever heard of this problem and if you do know, is it the transsimission or engin prob ?? Have called the dealer to book for serveice next week.. hope I am the only one with this serious problem. Cant belive my luck and hope this is one off problem can be fixed.

I have had mine jerk or seem to lock back after just stopping. As if it hasn't yet shifted to 1st then when a bit of accelerator is applied it jerks back minto 1st quite solidly. happens less often now ....thought it might be because if different driving habits as the trans learns how either my wife of I drive. No problems with flairing up to *k revs or reversing though. keep us allposted as we can learn about these symptoms and recognise faults before warranty expires
Thanks
