Hi there, very good tip. By the way, does 2014 335i have body valve to case sleeves?

Very nice video. I love all the information you provided and decided to subscribe to your YouTube channel. I own a 2016 BMW 428i Gran Coupe that's got around 76000 miles on it. I would like to do this service as soon as possible to my BMW car.

You mentioned you can get us the parts recommended if we live in the Los Angeles area which I do. Can you give me more info on how we can do that?

Thank you so much.

Great video. The video mentioned hard shift from gear 2 to 1 (clank). How this symptom applies to ZF 8 (GA8HP45Z). What parts should be replaced in this case? ZF 8 seems to be a little different with respect to Mechatronic Adapter Bridge and Adapter Sleeves.

Is this video for if your bmw x3 2012 doesn’t stay in drive or reverse after the car is running for a while

INCREDIBLE VIDEO. Lighting, view angles, instruction. All of it. This, plus solenoid and Zip Kit videos, saved me money and gave me peace of mind and pride by accomplishing this myself. THANK YOU. That sealing sleeve SUCKED, though!!

Hi everyone good morning I have a problem with my bmw 320i

Bro, I am wondering where the transmission fluid could be leaking from.
I see it's leaking when I park or stop before moving.

I changed the cover and the leaks come from somewhere else but I still find little spills on the transmission pan.
