Car has 100000 miles on it
Go to autozone or local auto parts store. Pick up the car specific fluid and pan gasket. Similar to the engine block with it's oil, the transmission block has a pan for it's fluid. It should be as easy as jacking up your car, finding this transmission pan, loosening the 8-9 bolts in a pattern that drains the fluid into your pan and not your mouth. :D make sure your car isn't hot or been used in the past hour. you want to loosen these bolts together so that you don't damage the pan by warping it. TIP: after cleaning the magnet inside the pan use a bit of the new fluid to lube the lip of the pan and new gasket to ensure a secure fit. :D good luck.

If your talking about what would a dealership change, it generally consists of a tune up, including spark plugs, plug wires, air filter, oil change, pcv valve, and fuel filter. Thats also usually when they want to replace the timing belts. There may be one or two other things specific to BMW, but generally thats what you can expect.

On the driver side of the transmission pan there is a fill plug. The car must be in the air and level. With the car running fluid will run out of the plug hole when it is full. This is no fun without a lift.

BMW get bigger and more expensive as you move up in the Series. So if better equals more room and status, get the 5 series.
