Red Line's line reads: '02 on 6 and 7 Series, '06 on 3, 5 Series and X5 with ZF 6 speed automatic. ZF ties BMW ATF 2 to its 6HP19, 6HP21, 6HP26, 6HP28 and 6HP32 automatics and releases only ZF LifeguardFluid 6 for them. The E70 X5 (2010-2013), E71 X6 (2009-2014) and E84 X1 (2012-2015) also appear under BMW ATF 3+ (ZF 8-speed), so the VIN decides.
