I had my gearbox serviced and asked for the 4 rubber tubes and the bridge seal to be changed. The place did a pan gasket and a fluid flush then gave the car back.

The pan then began leaking so I sent my car in to have another pan gasket and this time gave the place the 4 tube seals and the bridge seal which I ordered myself from ZF in germany. They tightened some bolts and gave the car back again. I have ZERO tolerance for idiot places who do not listen to specific instructions.

Consequently my car is still leaking and will be going to a ZF specialist on the 12th. It will have an adaptation reset as well as every seal changed. I will report back on how this cures slipping.

The solenoids adapt to low fluid or internal leaks so it should be back to brand new with fresh seals, fresh fluid (again). My car has 145,000 miles on it, and this would be its 3rd fluid change. (the first was ZF at 60,000 miles, the second was the idiots at 130,000 miles.

I will report back.
