Thanks for all the info.
Like I said I am only weighing up my options at the moment.
Going to get a full check on the D2 done in a few weeks to see just how much work needs to be done.

I still bet that you cant break my auto's 5th gear though. :DQuote:

How long would one expect a ZF 4spd auto to last in an average world with average usage (ie hwy and town driving) and not necessarily towing large loads?
Some question for the 5spd manual.
thanks

Flush the auto and new filter at 100k intervals..my D1 auto has 250k on it and very sweet and quick to engage from neutral. My D2 has 175k and a fair bit of towing and off roading on the 5 speed and sweet. My bro had a 94 D1 with a 5 speed before his County came along - 300,000k and no dramas at all.
Cheers

In NZ when I was a kid it was commonly referred to as ...Maori overdrive.:wasntme:

Ah yes ... Angel gear :)
The D2 auto actually has 6 gear ratios ...
1 - 2 - 3 - 3 lockup - 4 - 4 lockup :)
My 5 speed has growling gear noise. I could live with it but don't want to. It probably has quite a few K's left but I'm going to get it overhauled.

100k ???Quote:

(First service is oil & filter, then oil every 40K after that, but I would do filter & oil every 40K)
If you tow heaps then yes every 20K
These ZF's love fresh fluid & is the only way to keep there longevity :-)
