Questions About 2021 BMW Z4’s Transmission

  • 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 Z4 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system.

Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
