Questions About 2019 BMW Z4’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your BMW? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. 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 offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Z4’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Z4 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Z4 transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your BMW Z4 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your BMW, so check with your technician first. 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 Z4? Yes, your BMW Z4 can develop a transmission fluid leak.
