I've had 2 changes and there was a previous change on a receipt when I purchased it - no idea what they used for the first 2 but they never changed the pan as it was leaking so had the job done properly with ZF fluid. Didn't notice any change in gearbox behaviour and it's still got a slightly harsh 1-2 upshift when on light throttle. Gearbox software update made a noticeable change in gearbox 'character' although I can't say exactly what it did other than it feels better. The reset with the accelerator pedal is a temp fix for the 1-2 change harshness but it comes back after a while. Also going to WOT / Kickdown on the M-Way sometimes makes it better afterwards. My Audi which had the ZF6 speed also had a harsh 1-2 upshift and a gearbox fluid change didn't fix that either. AFAIK you only need to do a full gearbox reset if you change internals like teh TC or valves / seals - I've left well alone. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |
