Once I get done i'll try to clean up the videos and make a little DIY. There is a good video out there showing a full DIY on a 135i, I will try to point out the differences, there arent too many.

Thanks for sharing. Looks like you have a bit of room under there. How are you lifting the car and how did you manage to remove the tranny on your back on a roller?

Ha Ha all fair questions, Just used a floor jack and 2 jack stands, put the stands on the jack pads. Then i put 2 more near them just incase. And me and a friend put the floor jack under the transmission, and used our hands at the other end. Then we lowered it slowly and set it on the ground.

Wasnt too bad.
