I'll be interested to see how the Valvoline Dexron VI does in terms of transmission performance. There is so much hype about using BMW oils, only to find out that it is rebadged brand names we normally use.



I did the transfer case and the BMW oil for that was a Shell oil product that I could buy for half the price. The other half must be to either cover the manufacture of the bottle, or make up for the loss of business in Germany these days.


My scanner did allow me to reset the transfer case, so that was no problem.

I am considering the transmission filter and fluid this summer here in Australia, as we are in Summer. Mine is a 2006 3.0d but I would guess they use the same trans. Can I ask how did you refill it?
