Hi all, I have a 2011 4.4 TDV8 with 8 speed gearbox (75k miles) and my local Indi has quoted me £450 to do gearbox mega flush but they don't change oil filter which seemed a bit dear. I am wondering if anybody can recommend someone near York to do a mega flush.

At that mileage you don't need to do two changes or mega flush. The correct ZF fluid isn't cheap though, I paid £230 for fluid and filter...

Thanks Guys for all your comments , I really appreciate your help. I think I will get oil and filter changed then again in 50-75k miles.

Anyone know the quantities for the 8 speed? There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Stu told me in a PM that he paid £450 for a Megaflush, which doesn't seem bad to me if they used the correct fluid/ oil.
