We report the discovery of XMMSL1 J162940.2-112024, a new X-ray transient, found in an XMM-Newton slew from 20th August 2008. The source position (2000.0) is RA:16 29 40.2 DEC:-11 20 24 with an 8'', 1 sigma error circle. No other XMM-Newton slew has covered this sky position. The source is bright and point-like. The (0.2-2 keV) count rate was 3.1 ct/s in the EPIC-pn detector, whilst the (0.2-10 keV) count rate was 4.9 ct/s.
