This transmission is manufactured in Germany by ZF and carries the BMW designation A5S 310Z.
The A5S 310Z (ZF-5HP-18) is an electronically controlled, five speed automatic transmission with a
lock-up clutch type torque converter. Two planetary gear sets, one Ravingneaux gear set and one
standard planetary gear set on the output side, four rotating multiple disc clutches, three multiple disc
brake clutches, one brake band, and two sprag clutches (Freewheels) are used to provide the five forward
speeds and reverse.

Refer to Figure 3 for Manual Shift Lever Operation, Mode Switch Operation and location, and
Failsafe Operation.
Refer to Figure 4 for both MV Solenoid Operation and EDS Solenoid Operation and Tests.
Refer to Figure 5 for Shift Solenoid Application chart and their locations. Notice that the MV 6
Solenoid is used only for Converter Clutch application and that it is identified by a White connector
on the solenoid, where all the others are Black. Notice also that EDS 1 Solenoid is used for line
pressure control. MV 4 and MV 5 Solenoids are used only for downshifts.
Refer to Figure 6 for wiring harness identification, internal wiring schematic, and transmission case
connector pin identification anf functions.
Refer to Figure 8 and 9 for retrieving trouble codes and the Trouble Code charts.
Refer to Figure 10 for Solenoid and Sensor resistance chart with the pins identified for both the case
connector and the Transmission Control Unit connector.
Refer to Figure 11 for case passage identification to air check this unit before installation of the valve
body assembly.
Refer to Figure 12 for pressure tap locations on the case, and notice that some cases you must drill
and tap for access to a particular pressure.
Refer to Figure 13 for exploded view of the Upper Front Valve Body with valves identified.
Refer to Figure 15 for exploded view of the Solenoid Valve Body with valves identified. Notice that
there is an "O" ring on the adjustment screw that goes in the groove.
Refer to Figure 16 for exploded view of the Lower Rear Valve Body with the valves identified.
Refer to Figure 17 for exploded view of the Lower Front Valve Body with the valves identified.
Refer to Figures 18 thru 21 for the retaining clip locations in the various valve bodies.
Refer to Figure 22 for the locations of the orifices, checkballs, screens, and the check valves and
springs that are located in the channel plate.
