Reuse transmission pan or buy new one
About to do my transmission oil change. How many people reused their pan with a new gasket vs buying the whole kit from FCP Euro that comes with a new pan? Bimmerworld's kit doesn't have the pan, but everything else and is $80 cheaper.

Pan is metal for F85/ F86. You just need gasket. For F16/F15 pan is plastic and should be changed

MBoss is absolutely correct. F85/F85 utilize an aluminum transmission pan that has cooling fins integrated into it.
