BMW Company Recent History

BMW has an outsized reputation for being on the cutting edge of technology in the automotive field. This was garnered from their “New Class” of cars that were released in the 1970s and continued through the 1980s. Since 2002, BMW has focussed less on keeping value in the car from sturdy construction and reliability. As more expensive technology has taken over the design process, in addition to becoming more integrated into the systems of the vehicle; BMW has lowered their emphasis on long-term reliability and so all current BMW drivers have a harder, more expensive experience owning these vehicles. We can help you trust your Bimmer’s reliability by keeping tabs on all of your BMWs systems every time you come in for service.

*Note on transmission services and “lifetime fluid”. We recommend servicing the transmission, at a minimum, every 60,000 miles in order to ensure longevity of the transmission’s internal components. Failure to follow this maintenance regimen can results in needed repairs/replacement of the transmission totalling $4k+ as early as 110,000 miles.

Repairing a BMW ZF 6hp26 Transmission

Worn bushing causes wear in E piston

Piston seal deterioration.

When the 6hp26 is removed we always have to look for greenish leaks from crank seal and upper coolant passage. This one was leaking from the upper passage.

Mechatronics seal in the 6hp26 and 6hp19 will crack with age and miles and cause the trans to leak pressure. The common characteristic of this is when you shift into drive or reverse it immediately shifts itself back into park

These two pics show wear from mileage and improper service regimens.

This E Clutch was in a lower mileage 6hp26 that had been run low on fluid from a leak that was left unattended. If you service with us regularly, we catch these leaks early so you won't need expensive services like these, as early as shown in this case.

The pan on the left is for non-stop/start transmissions. The stop/start transmissions, on the right have a reservoir that holds fluid and pressure and keeps fluid moving through the transmission when the vehicle stops.

his place is absolutely second to none if you need hard to find, obscure parts for your Bavarian beast. I have an E24 that I got from California, drove to South Carolina in, without fault, and then once here it started acting a fool. No place around here offers a selection that Lone Star Bavarian does and I was able to get a few pieces over-nighted to me all the way from texas, in less than 24 hours. Trent went out of his way to make sure that I was got my parts as soon as possible because I was in a bind (the E24 is my DD). So I, I certainly recommend anyone who has a passion for getting down and dirty with their Bimmer to look up Trent at Lone Star Bavarian and get your hook up there! I couldn't be happier! Thank you, Trent!Not to be totally stuck up, but I'm really picky on where I get my stuff. The E24 is my passion, my buddy, almost like my best friend, and long story short, I found myself at a pick in pull looking over a semi rotted out carcass of an e28 knowing that "it'll get me by" but my conscience took over and I dropped my tools right there. I knew I'd get exactly what I needed from Lone Star, and so I left. I wouldn't send anyone anywhere else. An absolute mecca for knowledge, parts and service. I'm all the way in South Carolina and I'd have my car towed there JUST because I trust his service. (If I find myself in Texas).Impeccable service. Second to non!

I took my BMW 550i to Mr. Cole after taking it to a few other places. Not only did the man fix the problem he even gave me a ride home!! I would definitely be using him again. I just bought a 335i and guess where I will be dropping it off at?? You guessed right!

Been using Lone Star exclusively since my warranty at the dealer expired on my 2005 BMW 525 back in 2011. Now I have added my Mercedes C230 to the cars I trust LSB to take care of Always helpful, accurate and consistent in how they treat customers. Will continue using Trent and his team for all my BMW and Mercedes needs

My Mini Cooper was misdiagnosed at the dealership. Lone Star Bavarian fixed the actual problem and the repairs cost less than half of what the dealership wanted. They were fast, professional, and so friendly. I feel good knowing that I have an honest repair shop when I need it next. Thanks Lone Star Bavarian!
