Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper installation, the vehicle must be lifted securely. Because this kit is for transmissions with a plastic sump, ensure your vehicle has not been retrofitted with an aftermarket metal pan. Always verify your specific transmission code (6HP26, 6HP28, or 6HP32) before beginning.
Care Instructions:
- Ensure the transmission is at the correct temperature before draining fluid.
- Clean the transmission mating surface thoroughly to ensure the new filter gasket creates a perfect seal.
- Always use a torque wrench to tighten the plastic sump bolts to the manufacturer's specified pattern to prevent cracking or leaks.
- Use only authorized ZF LifeguardFluid 6 for optimal performance.
