Okay so I recently changed the ATF on my 97 540i, which also has the ZF 5HP30, with a Febi filter kit and Valvoline MaxLife and was also getting the same dreaded whine. Went back to the shop to recheck the fluid level and it is all good there. I went to RealOEM to check for a part number of this o ring that has been causing all this problem and guess what, BMW has one: 24341422152
I’ve already ordered the part from my local dealer and the oil pan gasket too. I’ll wait for it to come and hopefully the noise is going to go away once everything is installed.
Now I’m aware that sometimes RealOEM lists part number incorrectly but for a $13 o ring I am willing to take chance.
Ill post an update once I get it installed.
I am reviving an old thread simply because there is a lot of good info here and I am now dealing with the same issue so I will start by checking the fluid level and then replace filter and o-ring if necessary.
So blessed to have found this!!

I'm still in SoCal, and I think I follow you on IG. I am barely active on the forums- been meaning to post pics of an E38 diesel that I did a complete suspension overhaul, radiator, diesel stuff etc. and I have my E38 740iL but I barely drive, if at all. I tend to be a lil more active on IG
