I change my fluid in the trans every 25k miles. It's not expensive and easy enough to diy. I tried my go to RedLine fluid for the first change in my 335 and it shifted a little rougher so I drained it and went back to the bmw fluid and it was super smooth again. So with the 340 I have stuck with the bmw stuff.
I say check it out before buying and if it is smooth once warmed up then it's probably fine. Change the fluid for piece of mind.

This is good to hear. Hoping to have an issue free experience as I'm really excited to be hopping into a manual for the first time. Have you guys done the clutch stop or anything like that? |
No clutch stop for me. I kick around the idea of removing the cdv but I have gotten used to the clutch and don't feel I "need" to do it. I am sure it would be better but I don't know if it's worth the effort seeing I would diy.
