Transmission service time. Which 8AT do I have?

Hey guys is there an easy way to tell what transmission I have?

I'm sure some service kits suit multiple ZF 8 speeds but I want to know for sure.

It's a 2018, 8 speed ZF automatic. The car is an f36 440i gran coupe and has the paddles and sequential and all the toys.

Confused that fcp is asking me more details than I can answer.

Thanks in advance

Gotchu! Make sure you get enough fluid in. You a small straw and push it far in the new pan just to ensure you can get all of the fluid inside.

It truly is quite the process. If you follow the instructions you have to put the car through its gears after the first fill at a specific temperature and then re fill it a second time until it overflows.

Yea I did it kinda wrong, so I just had my local shop help me honestly. Didn't prepare well enough, as per usual.
