IS THE TRANSMISSION BROKEN ON THE M3?! | 2011 BMW M3 (E90) Build

Is the E9X M3 platform unreliable? This is the second time it’s been in the shop within a few weeks. Short answer: no. My E90 M3 is starting to climb in age and the maintenance intervals are starting to come up so for this video I bring it in for the transmission service and flush! Shoutout to Precision Designed always accommodating my schedule and getting the car running strong.

[@jeremiahex]

when you do the Maintenace and repairs yourself, cost is cheap and these cars are a dream; but if you depend on a shop... adios money!! SMG motor failed on one of my E60 M5s, yeah I have couple: parts cost - $445 for SMG motor kit, fluids - 2L Pentosin - $40, 3L of smg transmission oil - $120. I did all repairs and serviced the transmission in one shot. Total cost: $605, plus 2 double doubles with pickles from In n Out burger with an extra large shake to celebrate!

[@abc.garage]

$605 isn’t bad all things considered lol
