[QUOTE="c-square, post: 748153, member: 135"] Still no f30 actually done ATF change? I read on the www that our ZF8HP is a very different transmission than the old ZF trans and it requires special care and treatment. Need to firstly do a proper flush, then use the full ATF kit which will include the replacement of the filler plug, whole pan with integrated filter and all mounting bolts, etc. After that need to run the ISTA/D procedure to adjust and balance the new oil. The pump cycle on the ISTA/D programmer is important to cycle the transmission through every gear. Given the above pretty extensive care required in the ATF replacement procedure, I'm trying to find out whether any of the workshops out there actually go through all these steps when doing the AFT change rather than just the simple drain and refill.
