Discovery 2 Auto Box Oil Change
« on: July 26, 2008, 21:54:03 »
Hi Guys

I have been planning to change the filter and oil in my Autobox of my 2001 Disco 2.  :D It all seems quite straight forward, until I read the following article. :shock:

http://www.difflock.com/servicing/ZF-auto-oilchange/ZFauto-oilchange.shtml

Here it says the disco 2 is sealed for life.  :oops: I have noticed it does not have a dipstick for the gearbox. Does this mean the gearbox is sealed for life? I would value your greater knowledge.

Many thanks

Ed

Hi Ed,

I had my auto box serviced recently as it was beginning to show signs of slip. It can and apparently should be done and there is a service kit containing the relevant gaskets etc available. Also its apparently quite common for the pick up/valve block thingy to warp slightly and the retaining bolts should be torqued up when the service is done.

Regards Remmy7
