BMW e63: EGS Transmission Error L1-L4, ZF 6hp26 - Solenoid or Gear Position Sensor Issue?

Question

Hello

For some time there has been an EGS Sensors transmission switch l1-l4 transmission error. (6hp26)
Replacement gear jack, regenerated mechatronics and then the same ...
Is there a solenoid in gear mechatronics responsible for shifting gears or a gear position sensor?
I will be grateful for your help

Regards

You didn't enter the error number. On the valve plate there is such a solenoid valve as you ask MV2.

The worst part is that solenoids are included in this case PLN 1170 gross per set. - You can buy it by the piece.
And it is possible that the problem lies somewhere in the mechatronics itself and here the cost increases to about PLN 7,000. - If there is damage in mechatronics, it can be repaired .
I don't know if a better way would be to replace the mechatronics of the whole used chest. - You would have to have mechatronics from a car from the same year, from the same engine version.

If you already decide to change all solenoids, check what color they are in your chest.

Error number 5088

5088 - Sensor, transmission switch L1 - L4. I didn't have a BMW with this problem. I wrote in Google - BMW E63 DTC 5088 - this topic is discussed in Polish and American forums, gear shifting jacks.

The jack is changed and the same thing ... sometimes helps sometimes not from what I see on Polish and foreign forums.

Is this a solenoid valve? I just know that the box must be with the same serial number. Man, I don't know what to do because it may turn out that the solenoid valves will not solve the problem and you will have to buy any other mechatronics anyway. It is a pity that I have a piece for you because I could come to fix this problem .. Box no. 6hp26 1068010093

If you already had reservations about the operation of the change solenoid, this is:

Generally, sometimes there is a problem with the recognition of the D ... P and R gear is ok I give it to D and goes into 3rd gear and always on a warm engine.
Additionally, this problem only occasionally occurs after 400 km.
Yesterday I drove very dynamically and did not perform.
So try to replace this Parking solenoid valve and not this mv2 shift?
A set of PLN 1,200 and the question: is it better to replace the set ...

danyblack1987 · Answer

In this case, maybe instead of a complete set I will replace only the mv2 or the parking lot? What would you advise? I found a 2k functional case and I don't know what to decide ...

Hello, Have you replaced the boxes or solenoid valve? because I have the same problem. Added after 44 : Hello, Have you replaced the boxes or solenoid valve? because I have the same problem.

danyblack1987 · Answer

Give it a rest with solenoid valves, better buy a used chest. Make sure that the mechatronic has the same number and everything matches p & p In my case, I bought a used chest and applied only electronics from mechatronics. Then coding to make everything match and the box worked fine. The cost is 500 PLN, plus a robot. Immediately set out to change the oil in the box and regenerate the mechatronics so that it has arms and legs.

How do I know what my chest and mechatronics are? I know that I have a 6hp26 engine 218km. The question is, when changing the box to one that is sure you need to drain, change oil? And the converter? Must it be with the chest?
