No, Lodexol MTF 75W-80 is specifically formulated for manual transmissions, automated manual transmissions (AMTs), transaxles, and transfer boxes. It is not suitable for automatic transmissions that require different fluid types like ATF.
The change interval depends on your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations and operating conditions. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for specific guidance on transmission fluid change intervals.

Check drain and fill plugs for tightness. Inspect seals and gaskets for damage. If leaks persist after tightening, the seals may need replacement.
While the fluid has high-temperature stability, severe overheating may indicate an external cooling issue or excessive internal friction. Ensure the gearbox is operating correctly and not under undue stress.
Setup: This fluid is designed to be used as a direct replacement for your vehicle's existing manual transmission fluid. Ensure your vehicle's manual specifies the use of a 75W-80 GL-4 gear oil. The gearbox should be drained of old fluid while warm, and the new fluid filled to the manufacturer's specified level, typically via a fill plug on the side of the gearbox casing.
Compatibility: Lodexol MTF 75W-80 is suitable for manual gearboxes, AMTs, semi-automatic gearboxes, transaxles, and transfer boxes. It meets or is suitable for numerous manufacturer specifications including BMW (incl. Mini) MTF LT-2 / LT-3 / LT-4, Ford WSD-M2C200-C / WSS-M2C200-D2, VW G 009 317 / 052 171 / 052 178 / 052 512 / 052 726 / 060 726, and many others listed on the product data sheet. Always cross-reference with your vehicle owner's manual.
Care: Store the fluid in its original, sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Dispose of used oil responsibly according to local environmental regulations. Regular checks of the gearbox fluid level are recommended during routine vehicle maintenance.
