I personally change my plugs every 20,000 miles, oil every 5,000, diffs/transfer case every 30,000, trans (auto) I will be doing at 45,000.
Plugs and oil are nothing crazy. Diff and transfer case fluid can be a little pricey if you use bmw fluids. Redline is a reputable company for a fraction of the cost that I use to keep cost down in my diffs, transfer case you have to use bmw fluid but you only need one bottle so it's not bad. Trans fluid requires a kit with a new pan so it's a bit more expensive, here is a link to give you an idea: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...-24118612901kt |
Thanks. Do you know which Redline products would be appropriate for XDrive fluids as well as what is involved for replacing them? For example, do I need to go to dealer to have them replaced if I don’t have a lot of tools at home?
