2021 BMW M240i Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your BMW? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my BMW tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your M240i is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my M240i's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your BMW M240i transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your BMW's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can BMW M240i transmission fluid leak? Yes, your BMW M240i can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your M240i ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.

  • Can I still drive my BMW M240i if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving your M240i with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged.

A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
