[QUOTE="kby88, post: 337757, member: 9610"] i'm confused.. my car is E46 318i (N42) CKD year 2003...i've check my VIN number and my gearbox type is [B]A5S 390R[/B] I found somewhere in this forum and in the internet, A5S 390R gearbox is a Hydramatic gearbox, not ZF, thus it need to use TEXACO ETL8072B as the fluid, BMW part number is 83 22 0 024 359. am i right to say that ZF gearbox can use Esso LT71714...but Hydramatic gearbox will need TEXACO.. sifusss..pls clarify this.... FYI: If i'm in hurry and cant wait for my car to warm up, i'll just switch to M mode, drop it to M1 and it works perfectly... any idea why during cold put to D, it dont want to engage to 1st gear but when force it in M mode, it works...
