[QUOTE="Vanquish, post: 201677, member: 84"] Hi there, Welcome to the forum. A couple of answers for your reference. 1) What's the engine code for the 192HP 525i This would very likely be M54B25 as yours is a 04' car. 3) In the same e-mail, I was also told that this particular BMW does not require any transmission oil changes for a lifetime. Is this true? There's been a long debate on the what the lifetime sealed oil is supposed to be. Feel free to do a search on the forum but the common consensus is that oil, like all things organic would eventually degrade and breakdown thru wear and tear. So, I would much rather change it at a recommended/sensible interval and prolong the life of the machinery. Just a thought. Regards, VaN. [/QUOTE]
