January 2, 20206 yr #1 Gday champs Going to replace my Fg ZF6 6 speed auto soon Does anyone know if all the ZFs in FGs from 2010 to 2013 are same in xr6,xr6 turbo,G6e etc sedans and Ute or they are different? do we have to change the mechatronics even we replacing the same Fg model and year? Thanks
January 2, 20206 yr #2 N/A is different to turbo, but otherwise they're the same. just make sure it's a ZF 6HP26 when you get it. Tailshaft etc are different, but the gearbox itself isn't.
January 2, 20206 yr #3 Can you swap box to either turbo or N/A but use the original electronics? definitely best to find the right replacement box though or at least have the issue checked by a professional if it hasn't already been.
January 2, 20206 yr #4 Author Thanks k31th I probably go for 2012 or 13 FG model, mine is 2010 hopefully no issues any tips or anything to be considered if I do it myself?
January 2, 20206 yr #5 if you know how to remove it, it's just the reverse procedure to install it... if you have issues with removing the gearbox then you're probably best off paying somebody to do it
January 2, 20206 yr #6 Author Great Is it better to replace the PAN with tranny oil? I am thinking to put the oil cooler later on anyways
January 2, 20206 yr #7 you should replace the plastic pan with a metal one, that's about it, unless you're building it for bigger power, but a tranny builder will do that anyway... and of course you should replace the heat exchanger with an external oil cooler if you've got a decent level of power.
