Product Information

BMW Automatic Transmission diagram for X6

A Transmission Drain Plug is a component found on the transmission of a vehicle that allows for the draining of transmission fluid. It is typically located at the bottom of the transmission pan and is used during maintenance to facilitate the fluid change process. The drain plug is designed to create a seal that prevents transmission fluid from leaking out during normal operation.

• Transmission Fluid Leaks: One of the most common signs of a failing or damaged drain plug is fluid leaking from the transmission. This may indicate that the plug is not sealing properly due to wear, damage, or improper installation
• Visible Corrosion or Damage: Inspection of the drain plug may reveal signs of corrosion, cracks, or stripping of the threads. Damage to the drain plug can compromise its ability to hold fluid, leading to leaks

About Genuine BMW

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.

No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.
