R53 Transmission Slipping

Hey All. I have a 2005 Mini Cooper S and the can will not move after the trany warms up. It'll smoke the tires when it's cold. Through tons of research I'm pretty sure the valve body assembly is the culprit. I'v found a rebuilt one at REVMAX and have heard good things concerning results. Before I order this thing, I was wondering if someone could help me ensure I'm getting the correct version.

My VIN=WMWRE33505TG97306


REVMAX has 1 version:

Sonnax has 3 versions:

1 - "Large Cans, Cooler on Case with Switches"
2 - "Large Cans, Remote Cooler without Switches"
3- "Small Cans, Cooler on Case without Switches"

Git it open..

I took the pan off and removed the filter. Then took a few pics of the valve assembly. Can anyone tell what version I am in need of? Or is there just one.
