Hahah...thanks for the tip on gulf western. I did read about it ages ago...but seeing as I pay for labour it will probably only be a couple hundred $ cheaper (last time I got the genuine ZF fluid really cheap I think..something like $500?)...but will research costs properly when the time comes.Cheers!

I know a lot of the experienced guys on here have been using it....but hasn't it only been around for over a year and therefore there would be insufficient time to tell whether it performs as good as genuine?I recall the Ford guy telling me that everyone used to use Tansmax Z or whatever....and that beginning of this year my Ford place told me not to use that anymore (or they no longer use it); due to what I assume was someones gearbox f*cking up and therefore not suitable?But maybe that's because transmax had never specifically listed the ZF transmission (and our one ZHP26 or whatever its called)...and I think the Gulf Western definitely does? But yeah...if all the big time guys are willing to risk their gearboxes on a product...I guess I will look into it when the time comes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm maybe next change I'll be a GW guy. I've had Transmax Z in mine for about 90,000km now, through two changes (one was a rebuild). About 40,000km on it since the rebuild so I'm due again I reckon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
