BMW 8AT gearbox disassembly

Now let's see you put it back together -- with no left-over parts!

Those who design automatic transmissions are sorcerers and those who rebuild them are magicians.

When some one asks why these cars are Soo expensive and unreliable. Show them this video. This gear box has more parts than parts used to build a full Toyota car..

No thanks. Manual > Auto

You wouldn't get that much clutch disc scrubbing, if backed off power a micro second between shifts. This is why I shift automatics manually when I mean business. Makes trannys live forever. Left to itself excelerating forces disc's to skid stop under high pressure. Cheers

I’ll send this to those who ask about my Tesla: “So what does it cost to have the battery replaced?” (Less than replacing this, and FAR less likely).

People make this look so easy. I know a guy who can rebuild those in just a few hours.. I would be afraid to even start taking it apart. Having a camera recording is a big help when reassembling something like this.

The trick is putting it all back together (correctly).

BMW, Incredible engineering 👏. 🫡 BTW a stupid piece of leather called "Hermes Birkin" costs $16,000 which has ZERO tech, 100% hype.

Not so much a "gear box" more a "clutch box"

Transmissions are one Humpty Dumpty I could never put back together just right

Perhaps a driving reason people have made the Tesla Model Y the best selling car in the world! Model Y performance destroys anything BMW makes that sells for 2X its price with 1/10 the moving parts!

Is this a ZF transmission?

I "got" to see my Ford 10R80 apart last summer... $7400

Cool. Now do an IVT from an 8R tractor.

Die gute alte Zeit.

enorme complessità e attrito

Ça va, ça semble simple !

I think this is what I have in my 2022 530e?

ZF is a brand on its own… not from bmw

No ZF 8HP80 gen3

Rozmontować to każdy umie.

Ma manco la Morte Nera de staruòrs era così complessa, daje.

Highly over designed

relic for sure.

I recognized the Turbo Encabulator
