Zf Oil Change What Oil To Use?

[ChrisJager123]

Hi guys im about to do the oil in my F6 its done 101000km and I don't know what oil to use?

ZF Lifeguard Fluid 6- S671 090 255 VS FORD WSS-M2C919-D

Can this be mixed? are they the same oil? I can get ZF LG6 from the U.S for $230 6L vs $72 1L from fraud

Thanks guys

Gulf western syntrans does the job.

Motospecs should be able to supply you a 20L drum for around $500.

Do not pay $72 L

Based on posts here and the labels on the Gulf Western syntrans I bought a 20l drum of syntrans and used it to flush through my G6ET zf until what came out looked close to what was going in..

I think that was at about 78000km. The car is just under 90000km now and the gearbox has been fine.

There was also enough to replace a fair amount of oil in our BA 4 speed box as well. That is now at 220000km and was probably done 20000km ago.

Contact Zf syd. Should be able to buy 20l for ~$450 shipped
