ZF6HP28 Disassembly 

Awesome!! Can’t wait to see the reassembly of this transmission 👍🏽 your transmission content is bad ass!

Thanks for the video. Ive a new to me 6hp28 that had done 165k miles without a service. I serviced it along with bridge seal and sleeves, all new ZF parts and fluid. The old fluid had a burned smell. I went ahead with the service anyway. I did not reset adaptations. Everything went ok and the shifting noticeably improved. A few weeks later I was on a long drive and would have been in 6th doing approx 60mph for extended period. I slowed down for a junction and noticed a burned clutch smell, a car behind me flashed me and said my car stinks of burned clutch! The smell dissapeared pretty quickly and the gearbox shifted perfectly fine at all times, i never noticed any shifting problems at all. I rechecked for leaks and there were none, fluid level is perfect, drips at 40c. I assume there is internal damage, just wondering from your experience, what causes these transmissions to burn the fluid? I am a mechanic but ive never dealt with these zfs beyond a service! Any response appreciated!

Muchas Gracias amigazo, excelente sus aportaciones, Gracias 👍

Is it possible to remove the pump assembly without taking the valve body off?

Obrigado pelo video!

Hi there. We have a jaguar xf with the 6hp-28 that keeps flaging up p2704 friction element e apply time and it then goes into limp mode. So far we have put new Clutches and bushings and accumulators new filter and oil. Any suggestions ? Thanks

which car has the ZF6HP 28 IN?

Hey Tom! Thanks so much for the video, I've learned so much from it! Quick question for you, around 18:03, you show us the disassembly of the regular and balance piston. Do you need to compress the small piston to get the second snap ring out....or better yet, if a first-timer like myself used my spring press to compress the piston down to get the snap ring off...and perhaps it made a popping noise...do you think I killed both pistons? (nothing appears cracked, but there are 6 little "feet" on the underside of the piston that may now be damaged?) or does it have just a little movement and was just stuck? Cause I totally couldn't get the snap ring off from around the shaft, but inside those fingers without releasing a micro amount of pressure on it...totally didn't think I was cranking down that hard!!!! FYI, I had already removed the bellvelle plate and first snap ring... Thanks, and I'm bracing for the worst!

Good job, is sonnax zip required? Or can be normal oem parts

Hey Tom, greetings from Germany! Can you tell me what that thin rod is, right underneath the valve body? Is that the gearshift? I want to swap my 6HP26 for a 6HP28 and just noticed that (for BMW) there are ones with electronic gearshift and ones with cable pull to change gears. Both, my 26 and 28 have these rods but I'm still not to sure whether I bought the right transmission or not. Thank you!

Good
