Does the BMW 3 Series Need Transmission Fluid Replacement?
1 Answers
BMW 3 Series requires transmission fluid replacement, typically every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Transmission fluid is an essential lubricant that maintains the cleanliness of the gear system, ensuring proper transmission operation and prolonging the lifespan of the transmission components. Reasons for replacing transmission fluid: The quality of transmission fluid directly impacts the efficiency of the transmission system. Regular replacement is crucial to ensure optimal protection for the transmission. Most transmission fluids are compatible with automatic transmissions available in the market. However, each automatic transmission design has unique technical requirements. Even the same transmission model installed in different vehicle models may vary in torque, weight, speed, and structure. Therefore, the original manufacturer specifies its own dedicated transmission fluid. Different transmission fluids can significantly affect the quality of gear shifting.
