As mentioned you only get about 4.5 litres out of the 8 litres in there.
Ive always bought the Zf fluid, lifegard8 as I was always concerned about mixing other fluids which might not be good for the auto.
Ive read where Zf say not to mix fluids but it seem alot of people do and the auto’s still seem to run ok.
As Drover says, both the Penrite BVM and Nulon stuff seem to work fine and alot cheaper than the Lifeguard8.
The same sort of warning was given with the W5A580 boxes, must use some Shell stuff on fear of heavenly intervention, trouble was the stuff wasn't here and using the Mopar needed a Mortage, I used Penrite and then some stuff I got from MB Spares in Canberra .......... its the specs that count not the brand name...
