Transmission Fluid and Power Steering Fluid

[Kenny2g]

Anybody know where the Transmission fluid go on the 92' 325i? Does the Transmission Fluid and the Power Steering fluid go the same place? Or is there a special place that it goes?

Power steering says ATF on the reservoir and is about mid block driver's side down under the air intake hose on my '94.
There is no tranny fluid check tube on the 94 of mine you must check and fill under the car.

Automatic or standard transmission? You have to get under the car for both. Manual, drain plug on the bottom side of the transmission and fill plug on the passenger side of the transmission. Automatic, drain plug on the bottom side of the sump and filling requires removal of the sump.

I believe that there is no drain for the power steering fluid (should be lifelong fluid in there). However, dipstick (fill) should be readily accessible under the hood. I can't remember exactly where, but it should be very obvious.

The automatic transmission fills via the transmission dipstick tube! The power steering fills at the cap on the power steering resivour. Both should be changed in accordance with your owners manual. Personally I had mine drained, flushed and re-filled with Redline synthetics.
