Good video, thanks for the tip on how to differentiate between the ZF and the GM transmission. That ring problem also isn’t mentioned in any other video.
Luv this guy!!! Very informative, and he's from America!!! LOL ;) Thanks brother you do a great job on helping us work on our BMW's 2012 328 ix e91 3.0 natural aspirated.....
Thanks for making the video. I don’t have a pit where I can work under the car so I’ll have to jack up the car and do it with limited space. I’ll comment when I’m done.
Did you replace the gasket,I have the same transmission and I'm dealing with a leak, was gonna just replace the gasket for now. Can't afford the full kit.
Yes. I replaced it. You can buy just the gasket but you have to drain the oil remove the gearbox pan and after that you can replace the gasket. It will mean that you have to refill the old oil back
I recently did transmission fluid and filter change on my Bmw LCi 320i which uses same GM transmission. Drained transmission fluid came out extremely black brown so I was worried may be I did mistake and may be after filling new fluid I will get slippage. magnet was ok with normal sludge or debris no metal shavings so it was sign of relief. Fluid came out only 4 Litres but filling back @ 45C it took 5.5 Litres I don't know why. I used AcDelco pan gasket Part No. 24225800 which was half the price of BMW genuine gasket(original gasket is also AcDelco made for BMW). Filter is also available in AcDelco but price was same as Genuine BMW so bought Meyle filter. To surprise shifting was really smooth and unnoticeable before fluid change I had harsh shifting between 2 to 3 and 3 to 4 that cure the problem and now I have silky smooth shifting between all gears. I preferred using ATF Kandell Dexron6 .
if you want to avoid removing the sealer ring for the filter you can remove it from the new filter and reuse the original one. other than that everything was correctly done
I have changed the oil BMW 325i gm 6l45 box , 120 000km with all spares from agents. 2 years ago, I get jerky down changes sometimes, any ideas? What could be the cause the old oil and filter were in excellent condition.
i got Transmisson fluid deteriorated code and it shakes at 40 mph i got a 07 328i e90 any advice ? would changin the fluid + pan nd filter help my situation? is aluminum pan the way 2 go?
First time changing transmission fluid, nonetheless replacing a transmission filter, car drained 6.5 liters, and put in about 4.5 liters in, and 3 more liters when started up, and ran thru the gears (2 person job), and I’m worried I put too much in, any thoughts?

Not really sure exactly....but I've paid aprox 600 € for concrete 50 € for reinforcement steel, aprox 100 € 2 people to help me and 3 weeks of work for digging the hole myself. If you browse my channel you can see the hole process. (By the way the prices are for the hole concrete slab and inspection pit together)
I think the car had 135000 km and yes the oil look very good. I think it was already replaced but because I imported the car from USA and I didn't have any history at all I wanted to do all the maintenance
what year is the car that you are doing the work on? If I'm going to attempt this I want to make sure that I'm doing the job the CORRECT WAY! Pleas let me know thank you for your time.
@@lolskylar I agree , I have spent the last few hours trying to get someone to tell me if I had a zf or gm transmission on my 201 bmw 328i xdrive car ... your ... show me , where to look and what it was made my day thank you !!!!!
@@landonwadley7630 i have same car look under car if pan is metal its gm if it plastic its a zf there also is a green sticker on the pan labeling it gm
Pan bolts are 7 ft/lbs or 9.5 Nm. I've ordered my filter and gasket from USA and I forgot to order bolts aswell so I didn't want to wait another 2 weeks and I ended up to use the original ones
With the car off top as much as you can, till drips out. Put the plug back, start the car put it thru all the gears D, R, Manual and M1-M6 after that stop the car take plug off ant opp it once again till drips out and you are good to go 👍
@@WarpDriveM Thanks for your response, did you check the oil level after take the car on a tour? after that and working transmission temperature did you added more oil ?
@@WarpDriveM my car might not have been level when draining, and filling (drained approximately 6 liters), and the transmission was fairly warm, because I had to stop and buy a 5mm for the drain bolt, I ended up putting close to 8 liters in. It took 5 liters right off the bat, and with help of my brother starting it up and me putting more as it went through the gears it took about more 3, depending on how much leaked as I was trying to get the car more level for me to fill it. Did I overfill it too much? I’m thinking about redoing the process anyway, because a couple of the bolts weren’t perfect, and there was a lot of sludge in the magnet.

Its so much easier just to leave it in and reuse it old ring

Basically the same thing as with the zf transmission. But that filter seems to be a pain in the ass to change! Good job!
You are right. I didn't knew but you can leave the ring in there and change just the filter.
Wow, I need a service pit ... great video!!
Best investment I've done for cars. I can do all the work on my car as with a lift. Thx for watching
Im excited for the power too man
In a week or so I should have the new software installed. Super excited about it.

Hey man I have the same transmission, in my 2010. I am looking to do shift solenoids, are they same as ZF tranny.
I changed just oil and only 3L 800ml. Done all the temp/gears car on level ground. Filled with running engine on 40c gearbox temp. With scanner

It would have started flowing out of the fill plug if you put too much after topping it off.

Hola 👋 me podrías decir cuál fue el problema, tengo el mismo problema en un bmw con esta transmisión. Gracias 🙏
How much did it cost you to get that service pit installed? Seems very useful and probably costs less than a lift, no? Great video by the way

Thank you! I will watch that video
great video, what was the km on the car, the old oil looks fine to me
I think the car had 135000 km and yes the oil look very good. I think it was already replaced but because I imported the car from USA and I didn't have any history at all I wanted to do all the maintenance
Good work! which year is your car?
Thx. 2010 lci model
what year is the car that you are doing the work on? If I'm going to attempt this I want to make sure that I'm doing the job the CORRECT WAY! Pleas let me know thank you for your time.
It is a 2010 bmw 328i LCI. All the 328i have the GM gearbox (US Modell) till the F series
Nice video,thank you
What year 328i was this car you're working on?
2010 LCI US model
How long did it take you to do all the work in the video? Thanks
Approximately 1 hour
The best tipp was with the plastic or metal pan for the transmission.
its totally the best tip. ZF or GM Finally we know.
@@lolskylar I agree , I have spent the last few hours trying to get someone to tell me if I had a zf or gm transmission on my 201 bmw 328i xdrive car ... your ... show me , where to look and what it was made my day thank you !!!!!
Ozarkdaredevil was xdrive a gm or zf? Plastic or metal? I have a 328xi 2009 trying to see what filter and gasket I need
@@landonwadley7630 i have same car look under car if pan is metal its gm if it plastic its a zf there also is a green sticker on the pan labeling it gm
I agree!
How many quarts of oil do you need
i thought the rear wheel drive 328i had plastic pans??
what is the torque spec on those bolts, by the way, did you replaced them? Thx
Pan bolts are 7 ft/lbs or 9.5 Nm. I've ordered my filter and gasket from USA and I forgot to order bolts aswell so I didn't want to wait another 2 weeks and I ended up to use the original ones
What did you do to add 300hp?
did u use gasket sealer for the pan gasket?
I don't think so.. and if I used it was just to keep the gasket in place. Normally you don't have to use
Greetings, guys. Can someone share a link or P/N for this transmission filter
About how much would this cost ?
Thank you
Where you add fluid?
a question did you put the oil on the car? or did you put the car off?
With the car off top as much as you can, till drips out. Put the plug back, start the car put it thru all the gears D, R, Manual and M1-M6 after that stop the car take plug off ant opp it once again till drips out and you are good to go 👍
How to get an update for this?
Thanks from Russia
What fluid did you used. Dexcron vi?
Yes Dexron VI
Warp Drive M valvoline max life should works right?
How did you check that the transmission was flat level?
Because i see the pan is dip on 1 side ?
@@colassolorzano6353 car was on the inspection pit and that's leveled. Maybe the angle on the camera leaves that impression.
Warp Drive M thank you
I just did today. I drain 4. 1/2. Qt. And i put 6 1/2 . Transmission temperature was 86 F. Its running fine.
No gasket needs for oil pan?
You need a gasket. Maybe I didn't showed in the video but there is a gasket for the pan
How is running?
Perfectly fine. Even before was fine but I didn't had any history on the car and that's why I've done it!
How many Letters the transmission takes with you ?
I've used 6.5 l of Dextron VI oil.
@@WarpDriveM Thanks for your response, did you check the oil level after take the car on a tour? after that and working transmission temperature did you added more oil ?
After putting the car into all the gears I've added up a little bit more. But 6.5 L was in total. Ive bought 8 L just to be sure.
@@WarpDriveM my car might not have been level when draining, and filling (drained approximately 6 liters), and the transmission was fairly warm, because I had to stop and buy a 5mm for the drain bolt, I ended up putting close to 8 liters in.

Like I've said in the video I've used 6.5l oil
@@WarpDriveM THANKS WHAT HAPPENS I AM FROM MEXICO. AND I DO NOT SPEAK ENGLISH. THIS MESSAGE I TRANSLATED ON GOOGLE. THANK YOU. MY CAR IS A BMW 130I 2008 AND HAS THE SAME BOX THANKS ...
You can't put all 6.5 lts i drained exactly 5 liters. I can put only 2.5 when the car is levelled
@@mahendran2127 you have to run the car thru gears and after that you can put another 2 or 3 l. Don't drive the car just put it thru all the gears.
@@WarpDriveM I tried that. After shifting to all gears, I could only put in another 200 ml then stream comes out
is this car xdrive?
No is not

This is not a GM transmission. It's a ZF transmission made for GM (and other brands).

that a lie BMW tells you...
