acthad, were you doing this trans fluid change on the X5 listed in your profile, or was it on a 3 series e90? The quote above is completely incorrect [Edit: incorrect for an e90 ZF 6HP19 transmission, but sounds accurate for a GM transmission based on post 18 of this thread http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=573490]. I know because i have an '06 e90 xi and just did a pan/fluid change today and the exhaust is nowhere near the tranny fill bolt and the fill bolt is not on top of the transmission.
