Hi, I asked the question about would this kit work for the GA8HP50X transmission, on that post, I was told no it would not work. I emailed my vin in, and was told via email that this kit WOULD work based off of my vin. I have a 2018 340i XDRIVE, with the GA8HP50X transmission. My vin is WBA8B7C54JA576891. Please advise if this will work or not?
Yea, I see that separate question where someone with a similar vehicle asked the same question. But I pulled up your VIN number and the transmission your car is equipped with GA8HP50X I come up with the below.

There is a slight difference in the pan and accumulator for the transmission that is not like that which is found on the GA8HP45Z, I ran this through the BMW team here to verify, and we worked to add a ZF OE version of this pan so we can get a more cost effective OE option up.
But to confirm, your VIN, your transmission would use a different kit part number. We will work to put a complete kit together for it. Your Pan kit part number is 24347544930 listed below.

And the correct fluid for that kit is Lifeguard 8 from ZF listed below.

Apologies for the confusion there on the older Q&A, but I double and tripled check now using your VIN number and this is what is coming up for your application according to BMW.
