Hi Pauly...I've not been having any problems...I know you mean well but Dexron-III is not "lifetime fill".
"ESSO LT 711 41" or "Shell LA 2634" is the "lifetime fill" - not used in 318ti.
"Shell M-1375.4" is the "100,000 Mile" Fluid - not used in 318ti.
This information is from the very same printout I got from my local BMW Dealer. Therefore I will change it out, even though it's contrary to what is commonly posted in this and other forums...I'm obviously more inclined to take from the "Horses Mouth" than elsewhere.
