Manual Transmission – Bmw M3 E36 1992-1998

The manual transmissions installed in the E36 models are normally filled with automatic transmission fluid (ATF), al-though alternative lubricants may have been used from the factory, depending on transmission type and model year. For example, transmissions fitted to the M3 models are normally filled with a "lifetime" manual transmission fluid (BMW MTF LT-1)and do not require periodic fluid changes.
