Instead of only blithely following their CBS indicator on the dash (which won't unfortunately tell them to change ATF at any mileage)

PS If you know that engineer's email, PM it to me.... thx

(I kid)

This won't help you in any way but thought I'd throw a couple of facts in. I have driven over 105,000 miles in an e53 2001, and 110,000 miles in an e53 2004 and the original tranny fluid was in both and the transmissions were shifting perfectly. Have 35,000 on an e70 and the same.
