1. The guys in the jaguar forums use pentonsin ATF1 in their 6HP ZF trans, but those puppies are pushing a TON more torque than anything VW makes. Those High torque X type R's and XJR's are pushing 150,000+miles with no failures. So lifeguard6 is really a mobil fluid! what a laugh that is. Mobile, that got sued for pushing mineral oil based group III fluids+ additives as synthetic?

2. Guy, unfortunately, I have the same ZF 6HP transmission in my other car: 2007 audi A6 quattro. Wanna see what that OEM cough syrup trans fluid looked like after only 40,000 miles?--> http://audiforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=141176 Please do some actual research before posting missinformation.
Thanks for the input. I didn't mean to post "misinformation," I was just unsure and found this site, and wanted someone with some knowledge of the matter to chime in.

When I went to Autozone and Advanced Auto yesterday, in my quest to find these products, the only "decent" transmission oil I found was a Mobil Synthetic ATF, and it said that it shouldn't be used for applications for Ford F type, LT71141, and Shell M-1375.4 (which is what BMW uses).

Does anyone have any transmission fluids that they have experience with so that I can better update my list on the first post? So far, the only fluids I have so far are:

1. BMW OEM ATF (Shell M-1375.4); Part Number: 83220142516 (sold by 1/2 Liter) OR go to a Land Rover Dealer and the Part Number is: LRN13754 for the same Shell M-1375.4
2. Pentosin ATF-1
3. Redline D4 ATF
