2020 BMW 230i Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your BMW? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a BMW? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your 230i towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my 230i's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2020 230i’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your BMW. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my BMW 230i? Yes. BMW 230i transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
