Why Servicing the ZF Automatic Transmission Matters
Despite some manufacturers claiming these gearboxes are “sealed for life”, ZF Friedrichshafen AG (the gearbox manufacturer) recommends fluid and filter replacement every 60,000 miles or 6 years.
Fresh fluid protects the clutch packs, solenoids, and torque converter from overheating and wear.
Neglecting this service can cause:
Harsh or delayed gear shifts
Transmission slip or judder under load
Burnt or contaminated fluid
Solenoid Failure
Expensive mechatronic or clutch pack failure
Regular servicing ensures consistent performance, smooth gear changes, and a longer gearbox life.
