BMW M5 DCT gearbox oil change

In this video I'm changing the DCT (DKG) transmission oil in my BMW F10 M5. Same gearbox is used in M2/M3/M4 so the process should be similar.
While changing the oil I noticed that some of the brand new cans of MOTUL DCTF had different fluid color. I discovered that the bottles dated 2022 had much lighter color than those made in 2023.
If anyone know why this could be, please let me know in the comments :)

DCT oil replacement checklist:
remove covers and heat shields (8mm and 10mm screws/nuts)
cleanup
Remove fill plug (10mm HEX), leave it open
Remove bottom plug (10mm HEX), let it drip
put back fill plug (loosely)

replace with new cartridge filter
reinstall filter cover + put back snap ring

T30 at corner is 5NM, T30 at pickup tube is 8NM

replace oil pan seal (N/A if you have a new pan)
install oil pan with correct sequence (torque 10NM)
install oil pan plug (torque 8NM)
fill in oil until drips out (for me it was about 4L, some others had almost 5L)
close fill plug
connect ISTA
Vehicle management / Service functions / Power Train / DKG Transmission / DKG Oil balancing
follow the procedure in ISTA
raise RPM to 2000 for 1 minute with gas pedal
open fill plug
add more oil until dripping (for me it was almost 7L)
close fill plug
press brake pedal to end service function

I like this video a lot

[@centennialChris62]

Can you do it with any other OBD Scanner which can show the DCT Oil temp?😊

[@AlfisGarage]

I think you can, but I don’t know what ISTA does at 16:42 in the video - it says it actually engaged the 1st gear and activated max cooling. Thanks to that I was able to fill in full 7 liters. I know some people have struggled to fill back 7 liters when they didn’t use ISTA. They were trying to “overfill” but that is not really possible until the cooling is running at full because the oil would simply spill out. Anyway, give it a try and let us know! Good luck!☺️

Diky, Ano je to celkom OK :)

[@ammankalyan7460]

Where are the oil pan parts from and what are the part numbers?

[@AlfisGarage]

@@ammankalyan7460 I bought from local eshop. There is no specific part number for gasket as BMW doesnt sell them separately, but if you search for for the whole pan, you can find sellers who sell gasket only. The PN is 28107842385

[@snowman2834]

Where do i get ista software

[@AlfisGarage]

Hi there. I can’t give you any links, I can only tell you “google it”. BMW diagnostics and coding is a big topic on its own - I can recommend a channel called BimmerDoc (@BimDoc)- the guy is very knowledgeable and can explain things very vell.
