Replaces the ZF 8HP70 pan with its bonded-in filter, gasket and bolts, the only way to service the filter on BMW 8-speed automatics.
If your BMW 328i, 335i, 428i or X5 with the ZF eight-speed is engaging slowly on a cold morning, flaring between gears, or simply crossing 90,000 miles on its original fluid, the job you are shopping for is a pan and filter service. On the 8HP70 in these cars there is no separate filter to buy. The filter element is bonded into the plastic oil pan, so this kit, which replaces BMW 24117624192 (cross-reference 265-853, TFA92768), is the whole service in one box: pan with integrated filter, molded gasket and new mounting bolts.
The 8HP70 draws fluid from the pan through the filter into a pump that feeds the mechatronic unit bolted directly above it. Every clutch apply, every shift and every lockup event depends on that pump getting clean, uninterrupted flow. Because the mechatronic sits right over the pan, anything the filter fails to catch goes straight into solenoid screens and valve bores. ZF calls the fluid lifetime fill, yet its own LifeguardFluid 8 data sheet recommends an oil change at 150,000 km (about 93,000 miles) and sooner after towing, high heat or an unknown history. On the plastic pan design, changing the oil properly means changing the pan.
These overlap with the 8HP's known faults, including mechatronic sleeve leaks that drop pressure and harsh shifts from bad adaptations. A fresh filter will not fix a leaking sleeve, but it is the correct first step before anyone quotes a valve body.
BMW's own 8-speed troubleshooting bulletin starts every complaint with a fluid level check and a record of how much fluid was added, before any programming or adaptation reset. Do the same: read stored codes, save the adaptation data, then check the level at the correct temperature. If the fluid is dark and the car has never been serviced, the pan comes off. Our BMW 3 Series 8HP shift problem guide walks through separating a fluid problem from a mechatronic or clutch problem, and the ZF8HP filter and pan service guide covers the full job.
The listing covers 8HP70-cased BMWs including the 2012-2018 320i, 328i, 328d, 330i, 335i and 340i, the 2014-2018 228i and 230i, the 2014-2018 428i and 430i, and X3, X5 and X6 applications. It also lists 2013-2014 Ram 1500, 2012-2013 Chrysler 300 and 2017-2018 Jaguar XE units with the same case. BMW fitted more than one 8HP pan across these years, and some builds use an 8HP45 or 8HP90 pan that looks similar but is not the same part. Before ordering, compare the number molded or stamped on your old pan with 24117624192, or send us the year and VIN and we will check it. Browse every ZF eight-speed part on our ZF 8HP transmission parts page.
If you would rather have the fluid in the same box, the 8HP70 service kit with pan, filter and ATF covers it. If shift complaints remain after a correct service, the next suspects are solenoids and the mechatronic itself, covered by our ZF8HP solenoid kit.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Not on the plastic-pan design this kit replaces. The filter is bonded into the pan, so replacing the pan is how the filter gets replaced. Aluminum and steel 8HP pans use a separate filter instead.
The listing includes the 2012-2018 328i, but BMW used more than one 8HP pan. Match the number on your old pan to 24117624192 or send us your VIN before ordering.
ZF LifeguardFluid 8 or BMW ATF 3+ (oil number 83225A12A00), which ZF lists as the same approved oil. Do not add any additive or use a generic multi-vehicle ATF.
ZF's oil change kit service information lists 10 N-m for plastic pan bolts, tightened crosswise starting from the center. Always run them in by hand first.
Not as a rule. BMW's guidance is to save the module data before any reset and only reset when diagnosis calls for it. Check the level at 30-50 C with a scan tool and test drive first.
It fixes harshness caused by old fluid and a restricted filter. Persistent harsh shifts after a correct service usually point to adaptations, solenoids or mechatronic sleeve leaks.
