Thanks for sharing! I just found out about there no longer being a drain plug. BMW's insane about preventing DIY'ers. I'm shocked at how much it costs to change the transmission fluid. I was quoted $535 by my Indy to do only the fluid, and another $400 for the pan/filter. Apparently, the trans fluid is crazy expensive.
