To change the automatic gearbox oil of the BMW 1 Series, lift the car using a ramp to access the underside. Around the gearbox, you will find various pipes that need to be disconnected while collecting the oil in a container.

Next, loosen the screws securing the cover of the lower part of the gearbox to allow any remaining oil to drain out. By connecting the machinery to the drain plug, you can then insert the new oil and close the plug.
