I would be skeptical if they claim they never put the wrong fluid in. They could be just trying to cover their mistake without having to buy a new transmission. Seems more likely to me that they replaced it, test drove it, it failed, and then they were like "uh-oh!".

How do I find out what really happened? The car has been there for 7 days. They told me that they are waiting for the transmission fluid from BMW.
