BMW state that gearboxes are sealed for life, and don't come under any service plan
BMW , life is 60,000 miles !
Get it serviced at 60, 000, or 80,000
If it lasts that long, PX or buy a new one
ZF who make the gear boxes recomendation is 60k.

I got mine done by a ZF approved transmission service/repair centre. I can't tell you how much fluid the transmission, but the oil pan does get replaced. They had the car for a morning and charged £500 all-in, which included changing the diff and transfer box fluids as well. Their recommendation is to have the transmission serviced every 5yrs or 60k miles, IIRC.
October 2012 build X3 30d SE, Bluewater. Now with Webasto sunroof and paddle-shift
