Best price for Lifeguard oil also

also found this place

LAND ROVER - | Servicing twice the price

Also search for ZF distributors in Australia.

I bought my zip kit, pump, bridge and mechatronic seals and solenoids from the US, steel pan and duoprene gasket from Victoria, separator plate from the WA ZF distributor (after I had it all apart) and ATF fluid from SCA (Penrite BMV) via special order for a 20L drum. Was around d 1200 in parts all up.

I've got a left over separator plate here, brand new in the box. I bought both available options before I dropped the pan. Happy to sell it. I can get you the part number of your interested.
There is a guy on eBay in Australia selling genuine zf parts, his name is MJ products, I get all my stuff from him.

I’m doing a massive maintenance surge at 250k kms. After a first drop with LG6 still had clunky 2 to 1 down shift at lights so on second oil drop I replaced these rubber seals above the mechatronics plate and wow it’s made a huge difference, the shifts are super smooth at all speeds and power loads. The old ones were very hardened. For about $40 extra it was worth it before going down the solenoid change route.

Do a voltage check on the solenoids you've pulled out. they should all read the same. Hope you've also got a new bridge seal the one at the rhs of the photo (two black squares with a hole in each,connected via a thin strip of rubber) - this is the main fluid transfer from transmission to valve body seal, oh and a new mechatronic seal.

Looks nice and clean after 250,000km

Yep did the 4 tubes and 1 bridge seal and new mechatronics seal. Bit scary removing the plate but super easy with care. I doubt if these have ever been done. New filter and gasket. 3rd fluid change with LG6 and going really nicely.

I didn’t touch solenoids.
