Repco have these 20% of everything sales several times per year.
My local auto gearbox place sells ZF branded LG6 for $30 per litre.
Main North Automatics in Prospect, SA.
Otherwise Ravenol make an LG6 spec oil that you can order from places like LRseries. I think it's about 9GBP per litre.
Nothing special about the oil itself, it's a hydrocracked base stock mixed with some PAO and a friction modifier package that was developed with Shell. ZF/Shell had sole production rights to this package and could charge whatever they wanted for it.
I agree LR charging $70-$90 per litre is extortion and just ruins any goodwill people have toward dealers.
Just adding some recent information - I tried the local Motospecs (wholesaler for Repco apparently) and their price for 1L bottles of LG6 was $42. I then rang the local Repco store, thinking they'd have to be more expensive, but they only wanted $34 per litre !
Repco have a 25% off Sale to RAC members this weekend[13/14th Dec]This is advertised as including oils....so will try for 20litre drum of Lifeguard 6 #749626-1.In a similar vein what engine oil can I get for my D4 3.0?

5-, 6- and 8-speed as well as 4HP20 automatic transmissions:
ZF 5-, 6- and 8-speed as well as the ZF 4HP20 automatic transmissions are filled maintenance-free with specially developed partially
synthetic ATF oils. Maintenance-free fills are intended for normal operating conditions. Especially driving at very high operating
temperatures can result in accelerated aging or increased wear of ATF oils. It is recommended, in the event of severe operating
conditions, such as:
- frequent highway driving in top speed range,
- offensive, sporty driving style,
- frequent trailer operation,
being above average, oil purification (oil change) on automatic transmissions is recommended between 80,000 km and 120,000 km, or
8 years, depending on the load.
In each case, only released ATF oil may be used for oil changes. And oil changes must be performed in accordance with the relevant specifications
I thought I would post this from the official ZF website for you poor blokes in case some hadn't seen it particularly the change recommendations which in OZ I would think means everyone..
Lifeguard 6 is about $20 a litre for 10 litres in Czech Republic so not too bad here .
There are some alternate suppliers in Europe Eurol, and others. Hoping for it to be cheaper I googled the Hyundia oil but no luck, still the same!
