Because of the narrow applications, we don't have a recommended alternative to the Mobil fluid. These transmissions use a specific Mobil SHC 630 synthetic fluid (SAE 90 weight). The 1984-1986 325e/528e should have a green "Special Oil" label on the transmission. However, some transmissions will have an orange ATF label and you should use a Dexron III ATF fluid. If no label is present, the official recommendation is any GL-4 gear oil. Our favorite is the Red Line MTL. Most manual transmissions on vintage models do not have a fluid label on the transmission because nearly all gearboxes took the same fluid - a universal GL-4. Note: for the purposes of this page, "Vintage" refers to all BMW cars built up to and including the E30 3-series.īMW Manual / SMG / DCT Transmission Fluid This page covers fluid information and recommendations for BMW manual and automatic transmissions, rear differentials, and front differentials on xDrive models.
