i have a 1992 BMW 520i E34, sometimes the car goes into a limbo mode which can be fixed my turning the car off and on. but it has gotten to the point where that no longer work and it will get stuck for periods of time then ill stop at the lights or something and it wont idle properly like its going in and out of gear then when you go to take off it will go limp for a second then get into gear and take off hard usually spinning the wheels a little. there is also a strange ticking noise coming from the front right side of the car when idling .

First check the transmission fluid level to be sure it is correct. Then check the transmission ECM for fault codes. If the system is not working properly, a fault code will be set. This will be your best bet when diagnosing.
