After changing my own engine oil and filters etc last week, I now fancy giving the transmission oil a go.
Its a manual coupe and wondered if anyone can direct me to a useful guide on how to do this. I've tried searching the forum with no success and couldn't find anything specific to the Z4 on YouTube.
Thanks

It's about as simple as it gets really. There is a drain plug on the bottom and a refill one about 2/3 the way up on the side. Drain old oil out and then refill until it starts running out of the refill hole.

I found a big syringe like this made it a lot easier to refill... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/500CC-Oil-Su ... Swv0tVHUWn

Thanks for that.
Can this be done just using car ramps or will I need to get it higher to access the plugs?

Car needs to be level to get the oil level right.

I use ramps then jack the rear of the car up on axle stands. As DLV says, needs to be as level as possible.

Thanks guys
