Gearbox Oil & Filter Change for BMW 6 Speed Tiptronic/Steptronic Models

ZF 6HP Automatic Transmission oil and filter service for 6 Speed Tiptronic/Steptronic models.

For ZF gearbox codes 6HP19, 6HP19 X, 6HP21, 6HP21 X, 6HP26, 6HP26 X, 6HP28, 6HP28 X, 6HP32

This service applies to both Rear Wheel Drive and Xdrive models.

Your Tiptronic gearbox is a very sophisticated piece of engineering that needs to be looked after with regular oil changes. The system is computer controlled with very fine engineering tolerances. If the gearbox oil is dirty, it will damage other parts and affect performance.

Dirty oil can overheat the gearbox or cause the clutches to burn out. This will lead to poor gear selection, loss of drive and transmission failure.

Despite BMW claiming that the gearbox on these vehicles are 'sealed for life', ZF (who actually make the gearbox for BMW) recommend an oil and filter service every 62,000 miles (100k) or 8 years, whichever the vehicle reaches the soonest.

What happens when we perform a transmission oil & filter service

During an oil check, we check the gearbox and look for any leaks. We drain the gearbox completely and replace the oil filter before filling it with high-quality gearbox oil that meets manufacturer standards.

We offer a two different options when servicing these ZF 6HP gearboxes:

  1. Regular Service: The cost of a gearbox oil service is £478.10 inc VAT, this service includes a gearbox oil filter & gearbox oil. We would recommend this is completed every 60,000 miles to keep your transmission functioning at it’s best and avoid costly rebuilds at a later date.
  2. Full Gearbox Service: The cost of a complete gearbox service is £591.40 inc VAT (this service includes all of the above but with the addition of a mechatronic figure of 8 seal, four flow connector tubes and the rear electrical sleeve.  

This gearbox service is suitable for the following models;
