[bmw] Re: E39 Diff and tranny maintenance

[Elcrinv@xxxxxxx]

The local foreign car specialists recommend changing the differential fluid 
with Amzoil or Redline every 30,000. Same with the transmission. The ETK says 
"Kein Olwechsel" for both. BMW service mgr. thought it was part of schedule ll 
maintenance until he looked it up. He says it's supposed to be good for the 
life of the unit. Riiight!
I would think BMW would be doing recalls if they had any problems with 
lubrication. My iT has almost 100,000 on it and no problems.
Anyone have any first hand knowledge.
