The promised video to DIY DCT fluid change. EDIT!!! Make sure to use ISTA+ and use the "Service Function". A German Forum member said it would make a difference...I didn't believe it. I re-checked my fluid level again using ISTA+, and there actually was a 400ml difference. I know that's not much, but still better to be safe.
I've added the ISTA+ bit into the video...it's just an overview of using the program when performing the fluid fill.

If the transmission is a new exchange, then yes. If you are simply draining, filling, and changing filters, you'll get approximately 6.5 Liters out.

I think doing it twice would be a waste of money, for normally used M5

Folks! I just learned a bit extra.
A German M Forum member said I should have used ISTA+ to measure temperature and perform the "Service Function". He said it may make a fluid level difference.
So I figured what the heck, I'll re-check using ISTA+. I expected no change in fluid level. I wound up adding about 400mL on top of the 6.5L I added previously.
I couldn't believe it! I don't think it would be super detremental, but if we're going to do it, we want to do it right....so I'm going to edit the video to show the ISTA+ portion too.

Hmm, thanks for adding that, it looks like I'm going to have to factor in purchasing ISTA+ now, this is not going to be cheap but still cheaper than the dealers and ISTA+ can be used for other things I suppose.

So 7 litres of oil now.

So how the heck do you actually purchase their products? I've been searching their "website" and have yet to find a way to order the pan? How did you complete your order?

Thanks,
Lance

Hi, I used ISTA for the fill temperature. When driving I used the Bimmerlink...it was much easier. Getriebetemperatur does show the Transmission temp.
