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. GM and  ZF. E46 comes with 5-Speed transmission. 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.  Basically all the fluid type is different for different gearbox.
