Valvoline MaxLife ATF?

peterdaniel · 09-25-2020, 07:43 PM

I have used this excellent and cheap fluid for most of my cars.. It seems to work flawlessly.

I believe it meeds ZFs requirement for the ZF6 trans in the 335D which is

Shell M.1375.4

Anybody here use it instead of the ZF expensive ass fluid?

Thanks

Peter

Redline D6 for oem viscosity and redline D4 has been recommended by some that make performance modifications to the 6hp.

Or

Ford mercon SP (not the lv!) which is what ford uses in their version of the 6hp and has been tested by oil analysis to be almost identical to zf lg6.
