335 Manual transmission fluid change
Anyone changed their manual transmission fluid in 335?
Is there a noticible difference? My BMW rep said that it is a lifetime fluid and he has seen more problems from people who have changed this fluid… any advice or thoughts? |

I'm tempted to do the switch myself; in attempt to get rid of the crunchy shifting when the car is cold.
Heard the Redline stuff is good. |

Bullshit. Fresh fluid is never a bad idea. Your SA is a dolt.
Changed to OEM fluid. The amount of particulate was a little worrying. I'll probably buy a mag plug next year. |

When I had my E90, I changed mines to Royal Purple (diff+tranny) at about 60k and it made a huge difference...the tranny was like butter!!
