Any helpful advice would be great. Also if i change are there other oil products that are better than Genuine BMW like Liqui Moly or Pentosin.
Thank you  |
If it's a GM transmission than you shouldn't change it I'm not sure about the Zf ones. I asked the Foreman at my local BMW dealer and he said a fluid change could kill the transmission because it's gotten used to the old fluid. |
That is terrible advice, especially since GM (the manufacturer of the transmission) states to service it every 60k.
