hey guys I have an 08 bf2 typhoon and the dual zone climate control is stuck on cold on the passenger side been told theres a mixer shaft broken anybody had this? or fixed this themselves? any info would be good thanks
well I spoke to our castrol rep today and he said they made it and that's why they dont make an oil to suit because the oil they make to suit is for ford to distribute. and also mentioned that its a legal reson why they dont sell it... eg ford said they would use castrol oil as long as castrol dont sell oil to suit aswell
well as far as I know ford dont make there own oil it will be produced by someone else and repackaged so what are the specs on the zf box oil anyone? surely someone makes an alternative that will keep warrenty for those who want too... personally if the guys that build these trans over here are putting transmaxz in them and think its great and have no issues then that's a pretty big thumbs up if you dont care about your warrenty... as I deal with castrol a fair bit at work I might ring and ask the question if they do make an oil that will suit and ask why they say transmax oil doesnt meet specs
yer I understand that and even on the castrol website they dont have an oil listed but you ring ford and all they tell you is that the oil should be good for the life of the box... then I come on here and read this thread and have a guy that's rebuild a fair few of these and taught guys hows to rebuild them and says how he has had issue with the gen ford oil and only success with transmax.... +the gen oil isnt cheap... I dont mind paying for something but its gotta be worth it right?
