Not Only Automatic ZF: S5-31 Standard Gear Box

The S531 is a standard or manual transmission manufactured by ZF and used primarily by BMW.

We will discuss the different kits and the component of each that are available for this unit. The numbers listed are the most common. We do carry parts other than the ones listed and for other gearboxes not listed. Since there is a long list of transmission part numbers, that is the number on the tag on the transmission itself, not all will be listed here. The best way to order kits and parts is to have the transmission tag information ready when ordering.

To Solenoid or Not To Solenoid; ZF6HP26

Why the title you ask? Well its quite simple. When originally released by ZF the 6HP26 solenoids where only going to be available as a complete unit with the valve body known as the Mechatronic.

The solenoid pictures to the right is a blue capped one and is part number 0501 213 959. If you need a solenoid for your 6HP26 please let us know the color of the cap, the location in the valve body and the color of the ones on either side.

Please do not hesitate to comment if you have any info as this would help our blog readers.
