[QUOTE="adriangzh, post: 352398, member: 16918"] Ok. I try to explain what I know and what information I get from my boss. 1st of all, E36 and E46 is using diffferent type of gearbox. [B]GM[/B] and [B] ZF[/B]. E46 comes with [B]5-Speed transmission[/B]. So far, the problem caused by E46, is more on mechanical faults. Maybe cause BMW know GM gearbox is long lasting, so they created ZF gearbox to get more customers. >.> For ATF on gearbox, there are actually many type's of ATF. However each ATF is specially designed for different gearbox. GM gearbox using 1 type of fluid. For ZF gearbox, 6HP another type of ATF while 4HP,5HP another type of fluid.
