alternate plan D:



The BMW's I work on have a large enough filler hole that a common 1/2 Pipe
Thread street elbow male end fits in the hole and hangs down at 90 deg.  the
(different) threads just "rest" on each other, so it doesn't slip out.  use
a hose barb and heater hose about 5 ft long...put a funnel on the other end.
hold the funnel higher than the trans/ diff at the side of the car.  pour in
the oil that was preheated in the microwave (in a "double boiler"
arrangement: the plastic bottle goes in a pot of water in the microwave).
remover the hose/ elbow, then drain the contents of the hose back into a
conatiner.
