What It Helps Address

  • Transmission service intervals that call for filter replacement
  • Leaking or worn filter gasket sealing surfaces
  • Maintenance on BMW vehicles using the Dorman 265-851 pan
  • Restoring proper filter service components during pan replacement
  • Reducing service cost versus replacing original equipment pan assemblies

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the transmission pan part number before installation; Dorman 265-851F is specified for use with Dorman 265-851. Confirm the BMW model year and application notes before service, especially on 525i, 530i, and 740i listings. Clean the mating surfaces thoroughly and follow the vehicle service procedure for torque and fluid refill specifications.

Quality Assurance

Dorman OE FIX parts are engineered as service-focused replacements that address specific maintenance needs. This filter kit follows that approach by allowing filter replacement without replacing the full pan assembly.
