Replacing ZF 8 speed transmission fluid at 45K miles? My 2016 750i xDrive has 44K miles on it. I know that BMW says the transmission fluid is "lifetime", but on ZF's website they state that the 8 speed transmission should have the fluid changed every 45K miles. Do note that ZF 8HP fluid service flow chart asks for overfill by 0.5L after drain if car is equipped with oil cooler.
Then transmission temp needs to go above 75C to fill up oil cooler, then cool down to 30-50C to check fill level + gear shifts. I spoke with ZF several years ago about the 8HP service after BMW told be the BS about the fluid being "lifetime". ZF confirmed that they recommend the fluid and pan/filter be serviced at 60k miles.
I subsequently performed this service on my E70 X5 and L494 with service kits from FCP Euro and Blauparts, respectively. Hi I've read and watched lots about changing the transmission fluid in my 2014 Ram 1500 with the ZF 8 speed but I still have a couple of questions. Do I drain the fluid when its cool or when its between the 30-50C (86-122F)? One video.
