BMW 525i Automatic vs Manual Transmission

Automatic and manual transmission will often require contrasting fluids. Automatic transmission fluids are consistently thinner and are often red or green in color. Manual transmission fluid or gear oil is thicker due to additives and alternative compounds critical to lubricate the gearbox and alternative components. Manual transmissions have a higher friction environment due to the way gears are changed, thus the lubricant is contrasting.

Not only are the fluids diverse between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is exceedingly diverse. Automatic transmissions generate a lot more heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more naturally. If you don't change your BMW 525i transmission fluid, your transmission will have broken metal shavings and alternative corrosive material spread throughout the vital parts of your BMW 525i. You should naturally check the fluid levels between your fluid and transmission flush service intervals. In many cases, manual transmissions don't come equipped with a dipstick to check your fluid levels, so it can be exceedingly troublesome to do. Call or visit Plaza BMW for more information if your transmission doesn't contain a dipstick.
