So they recommended draining the pan, changing the filter, and then just refilling the pan. After a few months, drain the pan again and refill it with new fluid. That way it cycles new fluid in with the old and hopefully after a while it would be mostly new fluid. Here's the part numbers for your transmission if you want to get a new filter. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...96&hg=24&fg=15 Edit - here's the cabin filter http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...47&hg=64&fg=10 |
