Automatic Transmission

[Don (Ireland)]

that you get the fluid changed. I would not do this if yourself unless you are 100 confident and know what you are doing. There is no dipstick on these cars so it can be a bit tricky. I got it done by a specialist and it was not expensive, around £80. BMW dealers are not much more.

As for the whining in first this is a charcteristic of these autos unfortunatley. It shouldn't be too loud but should disappear when the car shifts to second.

Are you UK or Ireland?

I am in the UK. I will find some places and ring round and see how much to get the fluid changed. I can do it myself for about £20 but that means that i have got to do all the messing about.
