- In this video, go over the importance of using quality OE parts on these German transmissions. This land rover had an aftermarket pan and when an OE pan was installed made a big difference. When working on these transmissions only OE should be used
I posted a link to this video on the X5 forum. Thanks for the informative video. A lot of the new X5 owners are DIYer because the price of a X5 has dropped to the point that a kid flipping burgers can buy a used X5. They can buy a X5, but they can't afford to bring the SAV in for service.
Ok, No problem, i'm editing a video now for the ZF5HP24 on the lower front valvebody.
@@GaryFerraro I'll post a link to your video when you have it up.
@@upallnight888 ok, no Problem
Absolutely awesome!! I can't tell you how grateful I am for these videos and this information. Best transmission diag videos on UA-cam!!
Thank you, and thanks for watching
Garry i am the guy that called you about the whining sound. You were right, It was the pan filter making the whine. I replaced with zf trans pan and quiet as can be.
Great, thanks for the update
Thanks for the information Gary. Saved the owner a ton of money too. Cheap parts and unacceptable workmanship are widespread in all of the trades. It's nice to see a business like yours that's all quality! Thanks again.
TakeCare,
Bill
Yes, he was very happy. Thanks for watching Bill.
Excellent info Gary, as always the very best Transdiagnostic, very knowledgable. thank you very much. Keep up the good work, sir.
Thank you lee
Hey how you doing. I just want to say thank you for your videos. I recently successfully rebuilt my own 4.4 transmission from watching your video. Been a year still running strong 💪😎..great video thank you very much. Keep it up. That's one person you help so far with your videos
Nice! Glad to hear that
Wow Gary this is a great video and very much eye opening.
I'm coming up to a transmission service on my Range Rover Sport and just purchased the metal pan conversion kit from Atlantic British.
I think I'll buy an original ZF part just in case this one gives me the symptoms you said. Thanks again for the great info. And keep your good work going!
Vic Y Thanks for watching. Good idea on that filter
Just changed the fluid and filter on my 200k mile 4L30e for a similar issue. The filter had about 50k miles on it, but it was whining hard when cold and shifting sloppy. New fluid and filter its quiet and happy.
The Sonnax Zip Kit in our 6HP28 (BMW X5) made a big difference along with tube seals. The shudder came back briefly, but the computer seemed to be able to tune it out finally.
Nice, glad to hear. Thanks for watching
Thankyou very much Gary for all that you share we us
Thanks for watching Jose
Thank you for sharing this information. I use on my LR3 the metal pan with separate Filter, work good so far. Greetings from Austria
That's a good set-up some people swap from the plastic over to the metal pan, easier to work on. Greetings from New York
Hey Gary, LOVE your videos. I have an issue with my personal vehicle 2006 bmw 750li. i own a repair shop (not trans shop)
here is the issue. 2-1 downshift SLAM/JERK every time when coming to full stop & 3-4 shift flare that goes into failsafe. gear monitoring code also. I have to drive with my scanner to reset it on the fly. it happens alot but not every single time. Here is whats been done:
rebuilt transmission with new clutches, tc, solenoids, bushing kit, sonnex valve body kit with seperator plate (A053)
when i got it back, same issue.. then i purchased a used valve body with mechatronics & solenoids... same results..
dme & tcm have been updated with no change..reset adapt with no change..no change if hot or cold..
Thank you Gary...your videos are so good, it makes me want to drop it and inspect it myself !
Is it setting any codes by chance?
Yes. 3-4 gear monitoring. That’s the only code. I really appreciate the reply.
@@mikeg5971 Does it flare up on the shift?
Yes. 3-4 shift flare.
Gary Ferraro also I can make it happen when I put it in manual mode and I am stopped shifting from two down to one it’ll clunk every time. 1-2 is smooth
Very nice video thanks for uploading .
Thanks for watching
Hi, Gary, I am about to do some work fluid/mechatronics sleeve/bridge seal/valve channel seals on my 2004 XJ8 I watched many of your you tube video on ZF6HP26. Under previouse ownerships someone replaced 6-7 original bolts holding pan-filter. I am conceraned that threads there are stripped. Can you advise on two things: what methode d o you recomend on restoring stripped threads in aluminum body? What is your opinio on using steel/stainless steel helicoils to restore threads? Did you see galvanic corrosion of aluminum when stainless steel helicoil used?
Im having same issues on my 05 745li. Just replace de oil pan filter. 2 weeks ago and sence then. When the transmission warms up it. Takes off real slow on first gear could dat be cause i put n aftermarket pan
Gary, how long was the pan on there before the condition started? Also, is the factory one a mesh screen like the old Aisin units or are they a paper type element. I suspect the filter medium is the culprit here...
What would cause the flow restriction? Was there an actual blockage? Just not sure how a cheap filter could casue a flow restriction
The material that the filter is made of,
I have change the oil and pan on zf 6hp19 bmw e90 (zf parts) and i have a issue, sometimes after a run 60-70km the turometer it acceleratie and have no traction, i pull over stop the car, strat it and it run like nothing happens
Do you have any codes in the transmission control module?
Good info. If you cut it open would you see the difference compared to a proper assembly from the OEM? I have a 6HP19 on an E60 535xi - any suggestions for fluid aside from the expensive OE stuff?
May not see a difference by looking, it's the material the filter is made of
Hi Gary, Definitely OE . Gary I just opened up my transmission and removed the turret with clutches A and E
as well as clutch B. and they are all black burned as I saw in one of your videos , I wish I could send u some pictures so u can give me an idea as to what to look for. I will remove all the guts from all clutches today after work to see what I find. maybe you can share an email so I can send you some pictures I will get back to you this evening to see about the rebuild kit. Thank you Gary
my e-mail is gsferraro@yahoo.com
What is different between the 6hp26 and 6hp28?
The 26 is a Generation 1 and the 28 is a Gen 2. On the 28 they have 7 accumulators instead of 6 inside the valvebody, valvebody is different and solenoids are different, takes a different solenoid set
I hate these crap aftermarket parts. It makes me so frustrated. Good info sa always! Take care
Thank you
Hi Gary,
Thanks for the info! Great videos!
Does anyone know, why at 32°F (Freezing), my Jaguar VDP ZF6HP26 transmission stops working, until warm? It freezes! In below zero temps, I can't get it to move; eventually, to slips on down hill, but never warms. It finally just quit all to gather, like I burned it out, with burn smell! Hot or cold, no shift, goes nowhere!
Why would the fluid freeze? I changed fluid,, but it will not take much. The second stage fill never happens. Maybe I did it wrong? Maybe the pump burned? Clutches gome?
I don't know the codes, maybe a 700? They were saved somewhere, and cleared.
Any help out there?
Thanks
Was any work ever done to the trans?
@@GaryFerraro Hi, I bought it that way. They had a screw in the shifter, to prevent J-Shift. Don't know anything else.
Thanks
@@giovannijoseph9580 Well, first thing I would do is drop the pan, may have the same issue as this rover I was working on. If someone been in there see if it's an OE pan
Maybe the fluid level is just (too) low. Trans fluid expands a lot with raising temperatures...
Hi Gary - great vid - thanks for sharing - Q - I have RR2008 with zf6hp26 with 150k miles. Going to to do a flush and wanted to switch to Maxlife synthetic atf. Any experience with this atf? The lg6 is just way too expensive. Hope all is well. r/Michael
Michael A you should be fine. Any premium synthetic fluid will work
@@GaryFerraro Hi Gary, thanks for the reply and thanks ever so much for continuing to make these videos they really are helpful. One last Q - I'm not sure if I should flush out lg6 all at once and introduce the maxlife all at once or if I should blend in the maxlife in phases over a short period of time by doing a few drain and fills. Would you have an opinion on which approach would be better or if matters? Thanks Michael
Hi .
I need rebuild kit for zf 6hp26.
Can u give me spare parts link
Where are you located?
In india .state tamilnadu,city chennai
And send me a watsup number to contact you sir.i need to learn and do things with experts assistance like you .
I have work shop here and am formerly worked in bmw technical team
Do you recommend zf factory fluid or do you use aftermarket
John Mattiazzo I do both. When I don’t use the ZF fluid I use a premium synthetic fluid
@@GaryFerraro thank which brand is cause no problem?
@@soswag75 you could go with amsoil, cam2 or maybe mobile one synthetic
What do you think about the transmission oil of "fuchs titan" or " FEBI BILSTEIN", can they cause any damage on the transmission? I have good price on them, but I'm worried if they make the same job az the zf oem transmission oil. Thank in advance!
@@soswag75 I think you will be ok, that is fully synthetic?
Gary I know this is old but I have a question, there is any difference between the transmission on a bmw 645ci and the next years 650 look its the same Z26 for me
depends on the year, one may be a Generation one and the other may be Gen two
@@GaryFerraro thanks Gary, I’m asking because mine is a Bmw 645ci 2004 the transmission went bad and I found one but is from a 650, long history short not working either, I found out the hard way that the torque converter is different and now is making a really high wining noise and the ista says that is in third gear all the time
@@jimmycardozo428 did you swap your converter into the other trans?
@@GaryFerraro i tried to use a rebuilt converter that I had for the original trans, but it won’t fit so I use the one coming with the trans I bought.
When I look for the transmission I need just give the option for the one in a 645ci or a 545i, does not give me the option for the one in the 550i or 650i, not even the 745i.
@@jimmycardozo428 You should order the trans using the cars vin number
What about Vaico filters?
I don't know to much about those, have to look into that. Few times on a Mercedes trans when I couldn't get OE I went with Hudson and all was ok. On Zf units I never ventured outside OE
@@GaryFerraro Vaico is sold alot in Europe. I cut open my old oem 6hp filter and a vaico. Couldn't see any difference on the filter elements. I have been chasing an issue with my box for 40.000km. It feels like the converter is locking up too soon and makes it sluggish on low rpm. And it has a small vibration on acceleration betweet 2- 3000 rpm
@@mathiaskristensen9602 May be a converter chatter, have you tried changing the fluid?
@@GaryFerraro Yes. I did a filter and fluid + brigde seal and tube seals. Then flushed it 2 times with 10 k km between. No difference. I can clearly feel when the box heats up and hits 50 degrees the converter locks up. Feels like the converter is either locked or not. No modulation
And somtimes on kickdown i can hear a short squeek as it shifts.
