  • How much can my BMW tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your 325es towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your 325es is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 1987 325es’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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
