Mr_4.0 Member 1,096 Member For: 14y 3m 6d Posted 02/06/13 08:40 AM Share Posted 02/06/13 08:40 AM The zf is a very sensitive box. Any change to pressures or temps can make the box operate worse. You need to really plan out an external cooler install on a zf. I would suggest using a stronger radiator/heat exchanger as well as an external cooler. Run them in series. Do not run the zf solely off the external cooler.

Noka Member 13 Member For: 14y 3m 15d Gender: Male Location: Geelong Posted 03/06/13 06:50 AM Author Share Posted 03/06/13 06:50 AM Did not replace the mechatronics unit as the gearbox seemed to be operating fine. Was driving how it was meant to be and changing when it needed to. The trans place quoted $300 per solenoid and 9 of them in the box therefore totalling $2700.....
