In todays video we will continue rebuilding the salvaged 2004 BMW 545i E60 by removing the ZF6HP26 transmission to fix a fluid leak on the transmission and a coolant leak on the back of the engine. First we'll remove the exhaust, then the driveshaft, and finally drop the automatic ZF transmission. Thanks for watching!!
