This is my first post here, glad to be here.
I recently purchased a 1999 BMW 540iT with 162k and a bad tranny. I took a chance (big) on buying it and am in the process of having my mechanic install another tranny. That process is underway, but I have a couple of questions for the members here.
The car is not a salvage title and is in good condition other than the tranny and a few other small issues such driver and passenger window regulators being out.
Any advice you can provide on the service history questions would be appreciated. Thank you.

- Is there anyway obtain service records for the vehicle so I can begin them myself?
- Will a Carfax provide any info?
- Can a BMW service center/dealer pull service records from other BMW service centers/dealers?
