Thank you, ShopLife! If there are 5 gears+ a reverse, why are there only 3 pins and 2 for the reverse and 5th?

Do we need to use the special tool to tap the cap in or can a socket work? Thank you!

Little tip with 5th and reverse cap, if u use a flat head and hit the caps near the edge the will spin, saves screwing into them

love your videos man! i have a 323i with practically no issues because of your clips. i always have people ask me "you really don't have any issues?". and my answer is always " i did in the beginning, but I've addressed them!" Here we are about to hit 200k, same engine, transmission, and it doesn't leak or smoke . its got widebody fenders with m3 bumpers and exhaust. hoping to get an s54 soon!

tip for anyone doing this, put grease on the drill bit and the screw, save you putting loads of metal shavings in your gearbox

SIR. THIS. IS. THE. BEST VIDEO. I FOUND. HERE AND. THE. MORE. EXPLICID. TNKS. IS. A. MASTER WORK...WE. LOVE IT

Thank you Fitz!

The moly bolt tip DID help out a lot.. That ws good "thinning" ! I did not want to pay 100.00 for an expansion tool with the "dent puller" look to it. what you did worked just as well. tks

Great job, looks like frustrating but rewarding work.

My 2002 BBMW Z3 3.0i with the same transmission had a terrible fifth gear lean when I first got it in November of 2018. Then the next year I changed the transmission fluid with royal purple gear oil and changed the shifter with a used OEM replacement one and ever since the fifth gear lean is gone. Also the detents while still not great (I would like them to be a little bit tighter) are a lot BETTER. There for a while I thought I was going to have to do this fix but for now I am going to leave it alone LOL

Very Nice DIY guys! Stay safe, Dutch regards, Nico.

Great video Jason. Thank you.

Hey dude, great tutorial!!!

Great video... You should do maintenance DIY for the GM transmission on the e46, besides the fluid and filter change.

Great explanations and video!! TYVMI

Nice. I just did this on my E36 M3. Inner race blind puller / slide hammer yanks the 5th and R detents out like they aren't even there. Molly bolt was clever though!

You should make a video on the shifter itsself. It’s be cool to see a super tight n snappy shifter

Drills hole, uses self tapper.

Does this apply on 5 speed manual (i think mine is ZF and not getrag) e34 transmissions? Thanks for amazing video btw, have been watching you for years 🤗

Thanks for the videos , wondering if this pins fit my 6 speed

This video is way better

good video. i have 2 quest...... 1) what is the purpose of those pins and why should we change it?

Can you show us a video on how to remove the transmission on a X5?

I'd love to see a oil filter housing replacement tutorial for e60 from you someday.

@@ShopLifeTV would this include the engine oil cooler too?

Would the procedure be the same for the E46 M3 6-speed manual? I've noticed that the reverse detent is very easy to get over compared to the one in my 5-speed E46 318i.

Great tutorial indeed. Not good with trannys yet, but I picked up a rare 2004 X3 6MT factory (37 made), but it's a ZF and no info on it. You think the Detents will work with the same ZF but with an extra gear.

you should get a n54 335i and do maintenance videos on them....

Hey bro I have a e39 540, I’ve bought all the pins, would that special tool kit work for that gear box as well ?

What is the consequence of not lining the shift pin sleeve slot left/right on the case? I rushed right into the install after countless hours trying to get the old bushings out. From my limited understanding, as long as the slot is not at the 6 o'clock position (towards bell housing) it should be good?

Having trouble locating this kit anywhere. Will you be restocking soon?

Awesome video. I am in Johannesburg South Africa. My e34 535i manual gearbox wont go into 5th. Do you have any tips please. It's a getrag 260 225 1.3. Would greatly appreciate your comments. I am a weekend cowboy and am doing most of the work myself but am not a qualified mechanic

could 5th gear and reverse be done with the transmission in the car?

Stupid question maybe ,is the 5 speed manual transmission same on petrol and disel variants?

SERIOUS QUESTION: any way I could run this transmission in a rwd e46 obviously without the transfer case

When I inserted my 5th gear and reverse pins into the bushing they didn’t go in as smooth as yours did. I used gear oil for lube and made sure to service one pin at a time to not mix up the pins. So I ended up tapping the pins in with the detect tools. Did anyone else had to tap theirs in?

Does anyone know where I can find same video but about 6 speed gearbox??????????????????!

уже купил скоро буду делать тоже самое

what about popping out of 1st gear?

I got a 2000 bmw and its stuck in reverse how do I fix it, it has a 5 speed

2:47 Giggity giggity!

I have a 5 speed Getrac and I hve the tranny out AGAIN becuz after replacing the clutch and flywheel I can’t find 1st and 2nd gear. I find reverse forcefully but it jolts back into neutral and I hear a odd click. Please help

I have a 535i e39 1997, it won’t stay in Reverse pops out when letting go of the clutch, but if I push and hold In reverse It doesn’t pop out when letting go of the clutch. The transmission doesn’t exists in Sweden so I can’t buy a new one

Hey man , I know my question is irrelevant under this video , but since it's been posted a day ago , I thought you'd check it . I own BMW E46 318i 2003 , and my oil sensor shows a yellow light on the dashboard. Does this light mean I got low oil level ? Or does it mean that the oil is not good ? Also , another important question , do BMWs burn or evaporate or loose oil level ? Is that a normal thing ? Or is it actually a problem if a BMW looses oil

I have a 2010 mitsubishi lancer 5 speed, 5th gear keeps popping out. Do you think It may have something to do with the Detent being bad?

What about 4th gear?

Can I still drive the car with it leaning towards fifth gear or will they do damage till I repair it

Nothing will happen... It just sucks switching gears when the stick isnt centered but instead its leaning towards 5th in neutral

Hey, did you ever find out if it is possible on this gearbox?

Is the housing the same in all cars with the ZF 5 Speed except for the front differential? I would like to swap my auto trans out in my '06 E53 4.4. with one of these manual transmissions. Which transmission will fit? Does it have to come out of another E53? I believe E53 manuals are rare.

Hi Rick, sorry to say No to your question, these ZF 5 speed manuals where only fitted to the straith 6 3.0i and 3.0d,and V8 engines only came with automatic, manual shifters was a factory option on the 3.0's and so they are really hard to find even here in Europe, of about every 3.0 i looked for only some 15 had 5 speed manual transmissions. This type of ZF shown in the vid is actually a pre-facelift 5-speed after facelift they got 6-speed manual, you can tell because of the shape of the end of the gearbox where it's attached to the transfercase, this still is the one without the electric motor on the transfercase,which all 6-speed manual boxes had after the X5 E53 facelift in 2003.

Buy an adapter plate for M62 and a common gearbox you can find. The adapter kit addresses the clutch too. Otherwise there are only 2 transmissions that will fit, and they are both rare and expensive. Either from a 540i manual or the M5.

where can i get a service kit if ecs no longer carries it

Just taaaapbit in happy. Tap it in

Hahaha what are the chances, I needed this 2 days ago 😅

Dont drill the caps you'll get mettal shavings in the box punch them with something sharp then screw your bolt

Lots of shit gets inside the gearbox if you do it this way. Next time just use a regular wood or drywall screw with the pointy tip. No need to drill. And the metal caps can be just punched through with something sharp and a hammer.

335 I seem to be the big ticket how come you're not jumping all over this

Is this procedure and parts will fit for 6-speed gearbox???????Is this procedure and parts will fit for 6-speed gearbox???????Is this procedure and parts will fit for 6-speed gearbox???????Is this procedure and parts will fit for 6-speed gearbox???????

Pick doesnt work. Magnet doesnt work. The pins are hardened and cant drill into them. There is no way of getting these damn pins out. Also cant get even my shaved down tiny flat head under them to cave them in. Wtf is going on
