OE+ GTS DCT main oil pan

Tap right for info.

Gasketless design.

The machined ridge is sealed using the provided Loctite 574 flange sealant.

Increased Oil Capacity.

The pan is designed to hold 1 liter over the OEM pan. It can hold 1.8 liters when building upon the GTS fill specs.

Improved Cooling.

The fins are extended to provide additonal cooling surface, yet retain fitment with the transmission felt cover.

Fits with OE hardware

The pan is designed to re-use the OEM magnet, drain plug and oil pick up tube.
BUILD JOURNAL: A SPECIAL SERIES
It's not a matter of if but when.

The DCT transmission is a marvel of engineering and remains to this day the best automated transmission BMW M ever fitted to a car. 

Unfortunately for us, BMW didn't expect its DCT transmissions to leak as we now know today. 

Upgrading its main pan is a core component to bulletproofing this transmission.

In this Special Series, I document my DCT transmission leaks, its major service plan, updated GTS filling specifications and the OE+ GTS DCT main oil pan.

Installation Notes

I highly recommend professional installation. The DCT transmission is an expensive piece of mechanical and electronic equipment. An overlooked step could cost you a lot of money.
