This is usually a simple thing and ive been able to check this on every
other car ive owned. I have a 1999 528i now and im trying to check the ATF
level to make sure that its at the proper fill.
I cannot locate where to check this level at, that seems to be no Dipstick

I just acquired a BMW 318i.  I am sure that the clutch is working well.
When I first drove the car, I had no problems shifting.  Then, after a
few days, I began having problems shifting into 1st gear.   Not every
time, but on a regular basis, the stick will not go smoothly into the

We're considering buying the 525xi, but I continue to be worried about
the car in Chicago weather. We drive an SUV now with 4WD, which is
great in snow/sleet. Is the 525xi really good in inclement weather?? Is
the xi dramatically better than the regular RWD BMWs, which I know are

Does it only run at start up ?
Thanks

Hello everyone.  I know this could be several things, however just wanted to
post to the group to see what they would do, or better yet what I should

I have a 1995 525i with 102,000 miles.  On my way to work, my check engine

Where can I find the checker for the Automatic Transmission fluid??  The
owners manual does not have it listed?  Is this a sealed system?

Well, it's been almost a full 2 months without something going wrong!
I noticed a few days back that at 70mph, particularly on smooth roads,
