Hey guys, has anyone changed the transmission oil on their F20 1-series, all any F-Series since I guess it would be similar as they are all ZF. If yes, what were your cues to change?

I recently noted a hesitation while trying to overtake - I am supposing it was a downshift, and shifts in low gears, feel a little uncomfortable especially when the car is still cold - first drive of the day. I feel this mostly in slow moving traffic

Before that, shifts to Neutral and reverse in the morning are hard unless I let the vehicle warm up a bit.

At 74K kilometres I feel like these might be signs that my gearbox might be due for service

Has anyone else experienced the same, or solved it by a gearbox oil service?

Edit: Model specification

Hi!

I'm looking for aftermarket suppliers for my F10 and was wondering if anyone could recommend a good source for these types of products in Europe? I'm specifically interested in things like performance parts and exterior styling enhancements. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

A buddy of mine let me drive his 2019 M2 on track. I see why everyone loves it. Toss-able size, lots of power readily available at any rev range, and the tail easily gets loose. To me this is a pro and a con of the car tho. On track it feels like you are constantly chasing the tail around and leaves you feeling somewhat limited because of that. IMO because of that, the M2 is not a true track car like some make it seem to be. I think it’s a fun street car that can be taken to a track. But a track car, it is not. I’ve also driven a 2017 Cayman 718 and the new GR86 recently– in comparison those feel like true track cars.

I don’t want to sound like I’m bashing the M2 because I do like it a lot. Seems like it would be a fun daily. Just wanted to share some of my thoughts on it as it’s a car I’ve been wanting to drive for a long time. Great car but I just feel like it does not fit the description that many others have given it from what I’ve seen on here.
