Transmission Version and Control Systems: Notes

Each BMW Electro-hydraulic transmission has a corresponding control system. They are designated "GS" which stands for Transmission Control. This acronym is from the German words etriebe teurung. Each transmission can have more than one control system, this depends upon application (model year, series etc.). Below is a listing of ZF control systems used on BMW vehicles, Hydramatic control systems are shown on the opposing page.
