[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 741569, member: 4527"] BMW say the oil is LIFE TIME. Enthusiast will say every 60k km, together with the transmission fluid filter. I change transmission oil every 40k km (super kiasu), then every 3rd change, I replace the filter. The fluid is RM50/L to RM70/L depending where and what you bought. SC probly charge you RM95/L. If just changing fluid, 4L should be enough. If changing the filter, 7L should be enough. 320i has 2 transmission type. The ZF or GM. ZF uses plastic oil pan with filter. GM uses metal oil pan that can be reused with a separated filter. Mine is ZF, my blog: [URL="http://upgr8s.blogspot.my/2012/09/bmw-e90-diy-automatic-transmission.html"]http://upgr8s.blogspot.my/2012/09/bmw-e90-diy-automatic-transmission.html[/URL] [IMG]http://lh4.ggpht.com/-zFG69TANB1k/UEzYPYoe3gI/AAAAAAAABr8/JASt0oZ9MCA/DSC_1101_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=1024[/IMG] ZF uses ZF Lifeguard6 (Brown fluid) GM uses Petro-Canada Dexron-6 (Red fluid) [/QUOTE]
