How to: ZF 6HP26 Mechatronics Solenoid Replacement / Valve body removal
Here is a quick video I did on removing the valve body/mechatronics on my E60 yesterday. I ran out of space on my memory card before I finished so there's not any video of it going back together, but it's pretty much just reverse from coming out.
Instead of replacing the whole valve body / mechatronics assembly, I replaced just the solenoids and it completely fixed all of my issues (slow shifting to reverse, rough shifts everywhere, jerky shifts 5 to 6 and 3 to 2 especially, hiccup in 5th, etc. etc.) Hopefully this will help someone.. It appears most E60 owners do not do as much DIY on this kind of thing as me. Let me know if any questions. Hopefully this saves someone some money! Also, about 3/4 of the way through the video it keeps stopping for me and acting like it's the end. It isn't, so make sure to watch the end. Wish I could have gotten more detail on changing solenoids and re-installation, but I'm not doing it again for the sake of a video ![]() Last edited by schpenxel; 10-28-2012 at 01:45 PM. |
