BMW state that gearboxes are sealed for life, and don't come under any service plan
BMW , life is 60,000 miles !
Get it serviced at 60, 000, or 80,000
If it lasts that long, PX or buy a new one
ZF who make the gear boxes recomendation is 60k.

I got mine done by a ZF approved transmission service/repair centre. I can't tell you how much fluid the transmission, but the oil pan does get replaced. They had the car for a morning and charged £500 all-in, which included changing the diff and transfer box fluids as well. Their recommendation is to have the transmission serviced every 5yrs or 60k miles, IIRC.
