Changing mine today. Bought the FCP Euro kit and using Bimmerlink for trans temp. While she's in the air I'm doing the diff and installing my Gplus intercooler. I'm also going to be using some small dots of JB weld to try and cure a heatshield vibration. I'm also going to be scrubbing the wheels really good. Clean the barrels and look for cracks. Should be fun.

The trans temperature stays at around 40c for a while actually. I thought I had to rush but by the time I finished refilling it was still like 42.
Gplus intercooler? Have other mods? |

Yup, it stays under 50*C for like 20ish minutes. You have zero load on the transmission, so there's not much heat being generated.

I was shocked to find myself twiddling my thumbs waiting for the F10 to climb into the appropriate range. |

Hey guys!
Got a GA8HP50Z on my F10 LCI, I’ve stupidly put in Comma MVATF Plus, the car was fine initially and then it started playing up by slipping gears and having hard shifts between gears. I’ve just changed the fluid and filter today (both OEM ZF) and the car is working fine now. Does anyone have any tips? I know that the new proper fluid will not be diluted by the rubbish Comma fluid recommended to me by Halfords, would it be worth doing it over and over again? I have a donor spare transmission complete with a torque converter (Id have to reuse mechatronics from existing unit). Just FYI, the viscosity of the improper comma fluid is higher than that of the ZF LifeGuard 8, and when I dropped the transmission pan today it was horrible and sticky even to the magnets. |

So I got the kit from FCP euro to do transmission oil change, after changing oil, transmission is making weird whine or like supercharger noise. It made this noise on the first start as I was warming up transmission oil to measure. It shifts fine when driving. I have xHP trans flash. No codes. Any other suggestions?

glad I did this change. Mine shifts much smoother. 130k miles old fluid was not doing the job very well anymore.

I just did mine on the past Sat with FCP EURO parts at 85k miles.
