Gotta do this next week,can’t beat Febi parts 👍 most OEM bmw
I have been using them over 10 years and haven't found better quality parts at these prices
@@TheKeenMechaniceven febi (guibo) OEM with bmw logo scraped off…loveing e39 background 👍
@@Quick2004 Yes, they make the guibo still in Germany. I have a video on it too. By the way the silver BMW is 740i E38 which I have been driving as a daily car for years but the fuel tank is badly rusted so I just stopped driving it last week as I will be restoring the tank and whole rear axle. Now driving a lovely Msport 530i E39 Touring. Much lighter, sportier and easier on fuel than the E38
@@TheKeenMechanicwhat she like on petrol ?
@@Quick2004 so far I am getting close to 30mpg on a 10mile run. On longer journeys close to 35mpg. Not bad for a trouble free bullet proof M54
I think ZF recommends removing that part the pan covers, the silver piece where the solenoids connect to, and replacing the gaskets and this other piece near the electrical connector as well.
Before you start driving, they recommend running it through the gears and then in manual mode shifting up from 1-8 and then checking the levels again and topping up if needed.
Hi
Not sure if you noticed at the end of the procedure I mention to run through the gears and then to check again. Yes, there are a few sleeves on the valvebody to replace which we didn't have at the time and the owner of the car needed the car as soon as possible.
We have planned another oil change in the next 20k miles so then if he wants to replace them we can do that of course. Thanks for your comment and pleasure to have you here on the channel
You have pn for these sleeves and gaskets?
I did mine as you have in this video.
I used ista and it runs you through the process and won't progress until temps are right.
@@TheKeenMechanic Silly question but will the car allow for running through all the gears if the wheels are not moving or will it restrict it to lowest starting gears (M1, M2). Easy enough to simply jump in and try it I guess...😄
@@kjhnsn7296 It will run through the gears. Make sure wheels don't turn and gearbox has oil in it🤝🏻
@@TheKeenMechanic thanks!
Estimated time start to finish?
@@kjhnsn7296 can be done in less than 1hr if you have experience and all tools/lift
@@TheKeenMechanic Great to know. Will most likely be doing for first time this weekend. FCP Euro kit, jackstands and BMW specific scan tool. Will budget 3hrs as I will most likely be looking around, taking pics, and being extra careful.
Hi mate how would you flush the torque converter . As that would mean you would get all the dirty oil out !
People flush them with a machine which forces the oil out but the manufacturer of these boxes ZF don't approve this method. Other way to get more oil is to remove the valve body, this will get a bit more oil but not the oil from the torque converter. The best and easiest and recommended way is to do an oil and filter change as I have shown and then drive for a while then do it again. There are debates on every method mentioned but this has worked for me for years and is the easiest way🤝🏻
Great guide, i have few questions, how much oil did you use only for the transmission, when you do the refills after the oil reaches 40c does the car run or it is shut off?
by the way mine has 400k km and it is on its first oil, at this point i'm afraid to change it :D
@@dHan82441 please let me know how it went..mine is currently on 320k hehehehehe also afraid of changing/
Hi
You basically put the sump, torque to spec, fill up with oil with engine off, when it starts dripping, start the engine and keep in P (park) fill up more with engine running between min. 40°c and 50°c max when it within this temp. and starts dripping second time then go through all gears but put hand brake on and don't allow wheels to spin, then do a final check and top up more if needed and when it starts dripping 3rd time close filler plug, tighten and this is you job done🤝🏻🙌
Do be afraid, it will make the box run smoother and will last longer. Febi kit is great value and very high quality (OE Matching)
If budget allows buy ZF kit but Febi is excellent kit.
Car was remapped after this procedure and is now running about 700nm and 285hp.
Nearly 20k miles and runs super smooth🤝🏻
Hi
Don't be afraid guys, your transmission will be much smoother especially if never done at this mileage🤝🏻
I would do this at home but my driveway isnt flat. I dont think id get the level right
Probably best to find a good flat place, if you know someone with a car lift or a pit will be much easier and safer🤝🏻
Can i risk it without the software for tempeture? How long should i let it run?
I think you can risk it. I have done it on my E38 740i twice without the software. Put your hand on the transmission sump and when it starts to feel too warm to touch would be about right. Do this at your own risk of course 😉
@@TheKeenMechanicthx!
With almost 400k on the odometer, I think I might do damage to mine, but I'm not sure, I will just leave it for now.
Hi
Most likely someone has serviced yours at some point. There are a lot of debates on this subject whether you should service an auto box with a lot of miles. I just think that there is no way you will break the gearbox by changing the oil and filter. It will only allow oil to flow better and you will prolong the life in my opinion. Thanks for watching and for always supporting me here🙌
@@TheKeenMechanic My pleasure, apologies for the late response.
Maybe it is better I change the fluid then, as from what I can tell there are no issues with the gearbox, other than a weird helicopter noise at idle, which goes away for about a second when changing from D - R - P and so on.
Not sure if that is a big issue or not?
@@mrmusic1880 Not sure to be honest myself. It will definitely benefit if you change the oil and filter. I had droning noise on my E38 740i when I bought it. Changed the oil and filter and disappeared
@@TheKeenMechanic Very well then!
A gearbox service is definitely on the list then, thank you!!
