S8 owners, transmission service ?

[EISENMANN]

Hellow, how many of the S8 in this fórum had done the ZF Tiptronic service ?. At what milleage ?. Lifeguard 6 or 8 ?

When i bought my S8 2008 the first thing i want to do was the Tiptronic service ( drain and refill + new filter ). But it is very complicated to put down the pan, the 2 lines of the exhaust are there, and a few mechanical parts that make a big job ( a lot of hours of work ) to get out the pan.

My ZF dealer said to me to only drain and refill without touching the pan when the car has over 90.000 Milles or 83.000 Milles. Actually my S8 is over 73.000 Milles.

The tiptronic it goes perfect, very smooth in cold and warm.

Thanks all for your responses.

Regards
