Is my transmission shot? 1994 BMW 530i?

Car: 1994 BMW 530i Touring edition station auto

I bought this car most 2 months ago. I first detected that its shifting hornlike but mostly exclusive after a long intend in stop & go traffic so I figured maybe it was just because the transmission was getting hot. Now I've noticed several times where the transmission seems to slip. Basically I step on the pedal not hard, meet for connatural speed and the engine revs up but the car doesn't move, then it jerks and goes. It feels like maybe the sending is slipping then suddenly attractive into gear.

I had the car inspected before I bought it and the mechanic said there were some leaks in the sending and chilling lines that would requirement seals replaced. The excerpt was a total of most 700 for the sending for seals replaced, fluid flush, cooling lines replaced etc. I'm selection to do that if it strength fix the difficulty and give me another 20,000 miles or so but if the sending is hopeless I'll just sell the automobile and advise on.

So, what do you think? Is there wish that having the service finished module preserve the life of the transmission? Or is this a sign of large machinelike problems and I should meet sell the car?
Thanks folks. I know its probably leaking some fluid so I'll intend it topped soured and if that fixes the problems at least temporarily I will go aweigh and clear the 700 to intend the seals replaced & sending fully serviced. I meet don't poverty to pay the money if its going to expire anyway.
