You can use any SAE certified transmission fluid in your 2001 BMW automatic transmission. The automaker recommends that you never overfill the transmission fluid.
Allow the vehicle to cool then place it on ramps or jack stands. Drop the transmission pan to drain the fluid. Remove the old gasket. Remove the old filter. Reverse the procedure. After adding fluid run it through all gears with your foot on the brake and recheck the level.

You can locate the transmission fluid leak on your 2001 Chevy Metro by looking at the transmission fluid on the ground. Look above the transmission fluid stain and you should be able to see the source of the leak.
Remove the transmission plug on the bottom of the transmission. The transmission fluid will drain out of the unplugged whole.
