What is the price of filter and gsket? - my local dealer asks too expencive, Do you know where can I get online for internatioal shiping?

I have the transmission filter and pan gasket sitting in the garage collecting dust. It is still wrapped in plastic.

I can let it go for $45 shipped. It's for a 3.0.

My BMW is 2004 X5 4.4.

On my pan is yellow label with 83220142516.
As I found 83220142516 is Shell ATF M-1375.4 .
Is Esso LT 71141 recomended?
BMW 2004 X5 4.4i , chassis - LV05064

Does some one know where can I get Shell M-1375.4?

If you decide you need the ESSO LT 71141, do yourself a favor and buy it from bavauto.com for $15 a liter instead of paying the dealers $48 per liter bogus markup (which, by the way, is an 8x markup over BMW's suggested retail price of about $7.50 a liter or $546 for a 75 liter/20 gallon drum). Your will need about 9 liters to do a 1-time fluid change out. That will not be all of the fluid in the tranny, but about as much as can be swapped out with a single change. Good luck!

Too bad the X5 3.0D is not available.

VW sells the same Esso fluid for the 4.4 liter 5 speed transmission for less money than what BMW dealers charge.
I paid about $13/liter from the VW dealer in Anchorage.
