Prices seem reasonable for a DIY.

raceyBMW · 10-29-2010, 02:59 PM

That's only about $16.50 a liter, great price! Even the individual liters are only $17.13 a piece

Includes DIYs for filling and pan/filter replacement. Nice find.

No doubt, but for those who want to stay with OEM fluids while in warranty it's cheap insurance. At least the filter kits are a good price.

So it is confirmed that ZF lifeguard 6 = Motorcraft Mercon SP?

The MSDS for both fluids is identical. Australia lumps both together along with Shell 1375.4.

This is an awesome find. I can save $600 by doing the mechatronic sleeve change myself and of course the oil, gasket change.
