While driving in heavy traffic along I 90 the vehicle suddenly turned off. The cause was determined to be a faulty oil separator.

X5 8-cyl

After vehicle is parked for a few hours, when you crank it and put the transmission in reverse it slips and does not want to engage. Problem does not appear when vehicle is in drive, only reverse so far. As the vehicle warms up the problem goes away.
