When it came time to service your 8 speed, what fluid did you use and how did it work out? The first three choices have the correct viscosity the zf asks for, it is a thin oil with low shear, which is what they were trying to accomplish. Thinner then atf4, but the reason they use pao base fluid was so the viscosity would not drop and have better hot and cold performance. Now, that is what fca and zf goals are, what I am curious about is what works and what doesn't. We probably should have done this a long time ago, sorry about that. But let's do it now, what fluid works and what fluids don't work in your zf8 transmision??
I know Sean on eco diesel youtube used Amsoil and Valvoline which are not the same viscosity as the OEM, and he was fairly satisfied as I remember.
The bottom of the poll was just a question if it worked good for you or not. Let's just post accurate info, if something didn't work, PLEASE post it.
