What Brand is BMW Transmission Fluid?
1 Answers
BMW transmissions are 6-speed automatic transmissions produced by the German company ZF. Here is additional information: 1. When changing the fluid, it is necessary to use ZF 6-speed specialized transmission fluid. 2. It is recommended to replace it with the original specialized transmission fluid for the vehicle. The use of automotive transmission fluid has strict requirements. If other types of transmission fluid are used, it may cause premature damage to internal transmission components and phenomena such as rough gear shifting. 3. Low-quality or counterfeit transmission fluids have poor temperature resistance, are prone to oxidation, and can lead to sludge and residue buildup, clogging the filter, reducing transmission fluid pressure, affecting shift quality, and easily causing cavitation. This results in unstable oil pressure and damages friction materials, sealing rubber, and metal components, ultimately leading to abnormal transmission operation.
