Does BMW Need Transmission Fluid Replacement?
1 Answers
BMW requires transmission fluid replacement. Whether it's a manual transmission or an automatic transmission, the transmission fluid in BMW vehicles needs to be replaced periodically. Below is relevant information about transmission fluid: Function of Transmission Fluid: Transmission fluid is a lubricant that keeps the gear system clean, ensuring the transmission operates normally and prolonging the lifespan of the transmission components. Reasons for Replacing Transmission Fluid: Transmission fluid should be replaced promptly when it reaches the replacement cycle. Over time, the fluid becomes dirty and its viscosity decreases, making it less effective in protecting the transmission. This can lead to symptoms such as rough shifting, abnormal acceleration, loud noises, and in severe cases, premature transmission failure, shortening the transmission's service life.
