On my 94 530i auto, v8, you fill from the bottom side of the pan. There are 2 plugs, 1 drain, 1 fill. My trans. is the 5 hp 18(a5s 310z) 5 speed automatic, behind the 3.0 L. v8. The fill plug is in the corner of the pan furthest from the front of the car. Filling is similar to a manual trans. pull the plug and if nothing comes out fill till it does. At least that's how the parts dept. at the dealership explained it to me. I simply asked them to copy a page from there manuals on this procedure. My trans. only calls for dextron fluid, ($ inexpensive $) where as the other 2 trans. that were also used in those model years call for a lifetime oil that's about ($35 qt.) The trick is haveing the car level and still being able to fill it from underneath the car, lucky for me a friend owns a 2 post hoist that I put my car on. BMW say the trans. should be checked and filled at 30 degrees C. for proper fluid levels.
