Most miles on 6AT @ FBO Torque levels

[spxxx]

Hey there y'all, I just picked up a 6AT M-sport 135i that has been tuned with Dinan stage 3 software for 40k miles along with Dinan stage 2 suspension, oil cooler and FMIC. I come from an FBO 6MT 335i... The previous owner was a 60yr old guy who just moved to an M3 (the car is spotless and I don't think he beat on it) but I'm wondering who has been running their 6AT at high torque levels for the longest?

I'm gong to be FBO this weekend and flashing the Alpina B3 software onto my car this week. So far no trouble with the transmission but I want to know how these ZFs hold up over long periods of time at 400-500wtq

I have FBO ZF Alpina Flashed n54 135i and have been FBO + e85 for about 20k miles now and i am going over the 84k mark this week and it is holding up well although i would suggest to change the tranny fluid any time after 50k don't wait until 100k if you plan on keeping the car long term. I thought my tranny was starting to slip but it turned out my belt tensioner spring was going out and it was the belt slipping

I have 106k miles on mine.
FBO + e70

I know wedge has 96k on his, we both beat on our cars pretty bad

It is excellent news! I plan to run E60 FBO on it. Will get the tranny flushed soon. Can't wait to run this thing for another 50k or more miles!
