It is an easy answer: do it at 30-40k, just a gentle fluid change, and then you'll never risk loosening sludge or what not.
neil- with that many miles I'd be worried too. Do you think they will make it to 200k? With that original fluid? poor next owner
I'd love to get an oil analysis on that 9 year old ATF to see how well it protects.

Would you expect that a transmission that had it's fluid changed every 40k would easily last 18 years and 200k miles?
Not that I would ever keep a car that long, personally. I've already had my 330i a few years longer than I expected.
