ZF Automatic Gearbox
Yoshi:
No idea! lol But the replacement box arrived today, dont know if its the same one or not, it was advertised as a zf 4 spd from a rangie classic, but doesnt have the filler and dipstick pipe that comes up to the engine, but then this could have just been taken off!
Anyone want to fit it in return for the pc i have listed on the for sale board?
Range Rover Blues:
The dipstick fits to a union on the front of the sump. If I were you I'd be fitting a servie kit to it whilst it's off the car.
Yoshi:
whats one of them and how easy is it?
on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being for someone who just about knows the engine is at the front of the car, and 10 being the best mechanic i am a 2, so it needs to be simple lol
Range Rover Blues:
With the box sat in front of yoiu, about as easy as it gets provided you don't have 10 thumbs too.
6 bolts hold on the sump, remove carefully as they go into Ali
2 small bolts hold the filter (like a cigarette case) onto the bottom of the valve block.
Fit the new filter with the O ring supplied.
Fi the new sump gasket, mine was a tiny bit small and kpet faling off, stretch it gently in a bowl of hot water before you start.
Refit the sump onto the new gasket, ge all 6 bolts started before tightening any and try to use the witness line from the old gasket to get it right.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN, better a bit loose and some threadlock than strip the threads in the 'box.
With it in front of you, less than an hour with copious stops for tea :D
Yoshi:
Ok, what about the process of actually changing the box? Trying to work out precisely whats involved lol
