I’m going to BMW Mechanic school over at Duck’s place! Had a sticky down shift which Duck correctly diagnosed as a dry spline. Took us about 2 hours to get to the transmission and spline which was dryer than the desert. 60 seconds to apply some spline lube now about 2 hours to put it all back together. Good times hanging with Duck though and learning s TON!

This forum comes in as probably THE best one that I've ever signed up for in terms of help freely given, both virtually and in real life.

Hear here Dai. No forum like this one.

I've had that sticky down shift and the spline lube helped improve it but it never went completely

Use synthetic 75-140 gear oil and add half of a 50 gram tube of this:
