5HP24 Pump 1996-2002, used and ready to install. Fits the 5HP24. Ships fast from the USA.
The ZF 5HP24 is the five-speed automatic behind the V8 engines in late-1990s BMW and Jaguar models: the E39 540i, the E38 735i and 740i, the E53 X5 4.4i and the Jaguar XK8 and XJ8. When one of these cars takes a long moment to engage Drive or Reverse, slips under throttle once the fluid is hot, or whines with engine speed, the front pump may no longer be delivering the volume the transmission needs. This is a used, take-off 5HP24 pump for the 1996-2002 production years, a lower-cost way to replace a worn or damaged unit.
On the 5HP24 the oil pump sits at the front of the transmission in the converter housing, and the photo shows it in that housing. The torque converter drives it whenever the engine runs, and its output feeds the main pressure regulator in the valve body, the converter, the lube circuit and every clutch and brake. ZF rated the 5HP24 at about 440 Nm of input torque behind big V8 engines, so the transmission depends on strong, steady pressure from the pump to hold its clutches without slipping. A pump with worn gears or a worn bushing loses volume as the fluid heats and thins, which is why the symptoms usually appear after the car is fully warm.
Rule out the cheaper faults first. Check the fluid level at operating temperature using ZF's fill-plug procedure, since a low level causes every symptom on this list. Scan for codes and note which shifts slip. TransGo ties harsh shifts, a kickdown bang and even broken drums on this unit to a worn pressure regulator valve, and the upper valve body has a known first-gear fault, so a shift complaint is not always the pump. Our flare versus slip guide helps separate pressure problems from worn clutches. If line pressure is low in every range with the level correct and the valve body checked, the pump is the likely cause. When the pan holds a lot of friction material, a full overhaul makes more sense than a pump alone; compare costs in our rebuild versus replacement cost guide.
This listing is for the 5HP24 in 1996-2002 applications: BMW E31 840Ci, E38 735i, 740i and 740iL, E39 540i, E53 X5 4.4i, and the Jaguar XK8 and XJ8 with the 4.0L V8. The pump is pictured in its converter housing, and that housing is shaped for the engine it bolts to, so a BMW unit and a Jaguar unit are not interchangeable as an assembly. The all-wheel-drive 5HP24A used in Audi models is a different variant. Match the housing and the ZF identification plate on your transmission to this part, or send your year and VIN and we will confirm before it ships. Because this is a used part, inspect it before installation.

BMW E31 840Ci, E38 735i and 740i, E39 540i and E53 X5 4.4i, and the Jaguar XK8 and XJ8 4.0L V8. The Audi 5HP24A is an all-wheel-drive variant and is different.
The pump is pictured in its converter housing, and the housing bolts to a specific engine. Match the housing and ZF ID plate to your transmission, or send your VIN so we can confirm.
It is a used OEM take-off unit. Inspect the bushing and gear clearances and fit new seals before installing it.
ZF lists LifeguardFluid 5 for its 5HP-series automatics. Use it or the approved equivalent for your vehicle, and set the level at the fill plug with the fluid at temperature.
Yes. Clear the transmission adaptations with a scan tool that supports your vehicle and complete a relearn drive so shift pressures adjust to the new pump.
