BMW 8HP Transmission Oil Pan Upgrade Kit - Genuine BMW 24119503407KT2

Product Information

You are driving around on a ticking time bomb if you have not serviced your BMW's automatic transmission. While BMW advertises lifetime fills, the reality is there is no such thing as a lifetime fill in anything. Just like your BMW's engine, your transmission relies on its oil fill for cooling and lubrication. You certainly wouldn't drive your engine for a lifetime on an oil fill, so why would you do so with your transmission?

Not only will servicing your transmission increase its service life but it will also ensure that it continues to perform its best. Signs that your transmission can benefit from a drain and fill service include laggy shifts, sloppy shifts, or extra loud operation.

This kit includes a genuine BMW transmission oil pan with integrated filter, providing factory fitment, filtration, and reliability. Unlike conversion-style aluminum pans, this maintains the original design and service procedure intended by BMW.

This service performs a drain and fill, replacing fluid stored in the pan and filter. It does not remove fluid from the torque converter like a flush machine would. We do not recommend transmission flush machines, as improper use can lead to internal damage. A drain and fill service is the safest and most reliable maintenance method.

ZF's service recommendation: every 8 years or 80,000 km (50,000 miles), which supersedes BMW's "lifetime" interval.

Transmission Service Kit
The transmission oil filter prevents harmful particulate matter from entering the transmission valve body and damaging valve body bores, solenoids, and other fluid passages. Foreign particles in valve body bores, solenoids, or passages will cause shifting issues. Some of these issues include delayed shifts, harsh shifts, or no gear engagement in extreme cases. Clogged filters can reduce fluid volume and flow in the transmission causing starvation of the transmission pump. This can be identified by an RPM-dependent whine from the transmission bell housing area. The transmission oil filter should be changed during any fluid service, and it is critical to replace the filter if major transmission components are replaced such as the torque converter, transmission pump, or transmission valve body.

Transmission Service Kit Failure Symptoms:
Whining noise from the transmission pump
Driveability and shift quality issues including harsh shifts, delayed shifts, or no gear engagement
