We're back with another DIY video to show you how to change the manual transmission fluid on a 2006 BMW 325xi. This procedure should be the same for nearly all manual transmission BMWs, so let's get started!

 

 

Tools Required: 

Tips:

  • Remove the fill plug first, then the drain plug. (If the fill plug is stuck and you drain the fluid, you'll need to get creative)
  • Ensure the car is on a level surface when filling
  • Fluid will seep out of the fill plug to indicate when the transmission is full
  • Use brake clean to remove excess oil off of the transmission case when done
