i work for a dealer in pa and have an e90, i only paid for 2 liters of the fluid for the trans and i did the suction filter( which is the trans pan) and the pressure filter. instructions say you have to do all kinds of crazy things and you dont. i took the mid pipes down and just loosened the back of the trans and had plenty of room to do the pressure filter in the side of the trans, pan is straight forward. maybe took me an hour to do and for the 2 liters of fluid and the filters cost me around 400 at employee price, probably around 600 if i didnt ask around the shop to see if anyone had some pentosin. i believe they call for 3 hours to do pressure filter and not sure labor rates in your area but sounds like for 1000 you arent getting the full service and just getting fuid drained and pressure filter replaced. bottom pan is not cheap to buy unless you get a discount
