You mentioned "warranty" ... BMW / aftermarket ??

What year & model are you driving? What did they charge you for the transmission fluid replacement?

Warrenty is the BMW factory one full maint. and any thing that goes wrong to 100K. They didnt charge me for the fluid change as they say its now part of the mant. package with the extended warrenty. I drive a 05 545i. it now has 68K miles still runs like new.

I was going through my repair orders recently and noticed that they changed the tranny fluid at about 68K. The repair order said it was because the CBS said so. Don't know about cost because it's on the extended maintenance warranty. Speaking of lifetime fluid, my service book says to change it at 100K.
