Well and for most that experienced 1-2 and shudder issues, BMW did release a now-discontinued additive that actually resolved the issue in most cases. So to say the BMW stuff alone is gonna be good isn't accurate.
Im gonna change the fluid since this car had it when I bought it then it came back now after 20k miles. If it doesn't fix it I'll have to hunt for that additive.

This stuff is supposedly good for the shudder too.
