Q:
How can I identify which ZF automatic transmission is in my car?
A: Located on the transmission is an I.D. plate with
a ZF logo. The first line of numbers is the serial number of that
transmission. The second line of numbers is the specification number
of that transmission. There is also a type of transmission inked onto
the I.D. plate (ie. 4HP22 4HP18, etc.).
Q: Are repair manuals available for ZF automatic
transmissions?
A: Repair manuals (based on a complete teardown and
re-assembly) and functional descriptions (strictly technical
information) are available for most ZF passenger car automatic
transmissions. Call us for specific tear downs.
Q: What can I do if I am experiencing a condition with my
5HP30 transmission that feels as if the parking brake is on, or is as
if I am starting off in two gears at once and then the transmission
suddenly "breaks loose"?
A: This type of problem is generally a valve body
problem. If this condition is not rectified it can cause more serious
problems and more costly repairs.
Q: Is there technical assistance
available to help me diagnose problems with my ZF automatic
transmission not listed here?
A: For technical assistance, please contact us at
1-877-RSG-GEAR (1-877-774-4327).
