BMW considers lifetime to be 100k miles things like coolant, p/s fluid(not on newer cars), diff/s, and trans/vtg fluid are all considered lifetime which is 100k. So all those fluids should be changed every 100k or better. Yes that exhaust bracket bolt always breaks surprised it wasn’t included in the kit we always quote that bracket when doing a trans pan. Also you should consider changing your vtg fluid and diff fluids. The vtg will technically store a phantom fault in the car when it senses the vtg fluid is at eol but you should just do it when doing trans and diff fluid. Great job great video.
I’m impressed you do this work yourself. I have the same F10 535 and never though of doing that myself. Definitely would consider it now. I might have to hire you to help me since we are both in the Boston area. Many of the things you have done to your F10 I would like to do to mine. I would like to see your car in person some time. Keep up the great content!
A like and a comment just because you said my name twice.. Question: looking to come out of american made cars (or so to speak) BMW car or suv? What would be a good starter project for a newbie to start with? I know my way around vehicles and tool in general. Just asking.
Hey Even,, New BMW coup..? If so what year and body Man. On the Boot the BMW looks tobe a 325i or something.. Can wait to see what you do with your new BMW,, :)

Thank you as always bro!
Good job. You should also consider changing xdrive transfercase fluid😀
That will be next!!
lifetime as below is 100k, "NOT" never have to change it
I used Valvoline Maxlife ATF in e61 works great and half the price.
Can you do this without ista or is that mandatory to have as I do not have ista
You can you need a tool that can read transmission fluid temp
The service writer at BMW told me is was lifetime and I told him " I think I will listen to the manufacturer of the transmission. Thanks though."
Glad to hear this
@@EvanGoyuk My 535i has 166k miles and it hasn't been changed. Could I still change it?
I would just leave it
@@EvanGoyuk ok thanks
Hi i have bmw x5 e70 35i 2012 n55 engine with 111k miles should i do this or is too late now ?
Hello from 02368. Great job, and yes you are 100% correct.

Good job mate, I'll be doing mine this weekend.
It’s an easy job! Just watch out for the exhaust bracket bolt. I recommend to spray the back side of the bolt with PB blaster and let it set for a day
First!
I used to just properly clean the pans with brake cleaner and replace the gasket, instead of buying a new part
that is pretty cheap for this car
my e46 325ci had the pan rust out at 50k
last year , cost like twice that for BMW fluid alone
How about the dual clutch transmission?
Nice video thx! Where you get the muffler?
