Transmission oil

[Andyden71]

What will happen if you change the fluid in a 2.5 V6 automatic gearbox and you dont use the ZF lifeguard oil/fluid 

[TargetDan]

There are a few compatible fluids, you have to make sure they are the right spec though to protect the box. Ravenol seems to be popular at the mo, or direct from shell i think.

Check out this post on another forum - loads of research has been done on the subject:

hi

personally if it were my car I'd use zf lifeguard 6 and genuine zf parts

but if your on a budget a lot of people use this Mannol ag 55 with no issues https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MANNOL-AG-55-2x4L-BMW-Jaguar-ZF-AUDI-Automatic-Transmission-Oil-LIFEGUARD-6/302254726093?epid=11017016899&hash=item465fc91bcd:g:CvEAAOSwWxNYyv1u
