I told them up front that the 6MT takes 2L of fluid (not 9L like the DCT) and about the "drop down window" mentioned above when looking up the procedure in their system since it defaults to DCT values regardless of VIN entered. The SA got back to me and quoted a price that was 2L of MTF and 1 hr of labor at ~$200 for the job.

So there is hope.....

That's awesome to hear that it works out again for someone else.

So I got mine done a few days ago when doing the oil change. I didn't have to explain anything, these guys at my local dealer are pretty good with stuff like that.
Total with fluid and labor was $196 labor there is $125

Got mine done a few weeks back. Fluid from getBmwParts was $63 after tax (local pickup) and my Indy shop charged me $25.

Total $88. Cheap insurance.
