Lubrication

CAUTION: Additives and friction modifiers are not recommended for use in ZF transmissions.

ZF transmissions are designed so that the internal parts operate in an oil bath circulated by the motion of the gears and shafts. All parts are amply lubricated if these procedures are followed:
^ Maintain the correct fluid level by inspecting it regularly.
^ Change the fluid regularly.
^ Use MERCON(R) Multi-Purpose Automatic Transmission Fluid XT-2-QDX or equivalent meeting Ford specification MERCON(R).
