another update. it's been 6 years and 100k miles since my first post in this thread (first page).

x5 4.4 now has 150k miles. I still have the original transmission filter! Ive been draining/filling the pan with penzoil mult atf (esso compatible) at every other oil change since 50k miles.

some observations: trans would hesitate shifting into first coming to a stop. I would change the fluid and problem would go away for months. issue will eventually resurface more and more frequently until I change the fluid again.

Still use Castrol import multi vehicle atf. Not a single problem, tranny works great. Tranny and truck have 155000+ Km on them. Tranny fluid isn't magic.......It's fluid. Too many people believe in smoke and mirrors.
