The torque limit is a transmission figure from the source; it does not establish engine torque or permissible tuning.

Gear ratios

The package provides no S6-45A ratio set. S6-45, GS6-45DZ and GS6X45DZ data cannot be assigned without confirming the exact subvariant. View sources

No verified ratio set is available yet for this exact version.

Fluid data

No separately verified fluid data is available for this exact version. Determine the fluid using the full transmission identifier and BMW requirements.

ZF identification

S6-45A is a manufacturer type designation. The identical entry in the package’s BMW-code field does not verify a separate BMW/OE code.

Confirm the fitted variant using the complete identification plate, BMW/OE part number and VIN7.

Record the full marking on the transmission housing.

Type designation
The exact type shown on the plate, including every suffix.
Manufacturer version identifier
All letters, digits and suffixes of the transmission code; a casting mark alone is insufficient.
Serial number
Serial Number. Identifies the individual unit; not the same as the transmission family code.
BMW / OE markings
Manufacturer part numbers and other codes on the plate. Available fields vary by version.
