My TDV8 3.6 is running well and the only very small niggle is very rarely I get a harsh 2 to one change and a slight flare 4th to 5th. Most of the time all is smooth. I am getting bits together to change the mechatronic sleeves and seal with a fluid and filter change as after a lot of reading these seem to be a service item. The Car has done 135000 miles so I thought as the mechatronic body was going to be out, I would change the mechatronic solenoids or at least remove and clean them.

In answer to my question DONT TRUST THESE "recon" solenoids.

Not sure I have the confidence to fiddle with an auto box as they are horrendously complicated. Christian.

Quite a straightforward process, now my box has new fluid and filter, the 4 tube seals a bridge seal and elec connector seal. So far with limited road use the random issues of 2 to 1 hard shift and a slight flair 4th to 5th are gone.

Having done it twice ( once in reverse ) I would need a lot of info and reassurance before changing the Solenoids again. The Sleeve and bridge seals are easy enough. Maybe a ZF expert might elaborate on the Solenoid adaptation, is this doable? Also, Torx sizes go 27, 30, and 40. I am convinced ZF have their own size32? to make things problematic for DIYers 2007 TDV8 VSE
