Hi has anyone ever changed auto box oil/filter on one of these. Have a customer who wants me to do it for him. He has a noise from torque converter/gearbox area like a belt squeel/squawking noise when just taking up engine revs,even in neutral.Told him to go to BMW for a diagnosis/oil change,they said slight leak on box causing noise,cant top up level-new box required.Has a sticker on box saying oil for life,no change required.Autodata says level needs checking with diagnostics.Any help appreciated.
