Automatic Transmission Fluid Change
Model: BMW Serie 3
E46
- Years 1998-2006
Lift the vehicle on a lift and locate the automatic transmission oil pan. Position a drain pan underneath and remove the drain plug located at the edge of the pan. Next, unscrew all the bolts along the edge of the pan to remove it and replace the filter, which is rectangular and fitted inside the transmission: pull it out and insert the new one, also replacing the gasket. Clean the oil pan thoroughly, especially the metallic debris attached to the magnet at the bottom; apply the new gasket to the pan and reposition it under the transmission, tightening all the bolts along the edges. Then, fill the transmission with the specific oil through the fill plug located on the side (when the oil starts to overflow from the fill plug, the level is okay). Start the engine and let it idle; recheck the oil level.

How to Remove the Front Headlamp on a Renault Megane
Let's see how to remove the front headlamp on a Renault Megane. Open the bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and secure it. Unscrew the headlamp securing bolts with a screwdriver, along with the associated clips, and extract the headlamp from its housing. Once the headlamp is removed (located at the rear of the headlamp), take it out, and you will find the bulbs with metal clips. Pull out the bulb holder from the headlamp and extract the damaged bulb using a screwdriver. Install the new bulb (always ensure it is the correct type and size) and insert the bulb holder back into the headlamp housing. by ScegliAuto More videos
