Technical 9 speed auto oil level

[Andyshep]

Dose anyone know the oil level for the zf 9 speed auto. I have a drive shaft oil leak, so am going to replace the seal. I’ve ordered the required dipstick to check the level. But need the info re level / temperature.

Thanks

Hello,

I have no idea, but perhaps @vladandrei83 has

Hi, I still don't know either, but I'll come back with information as soon as I find out.

 

[vladandrei83]

Btw, If you need to add, what kind of oil do you plan to use? Now I've upgrade from manual to zf9 (for 2.3 2019-2020), gearbox is almost empty. We'll fill ~6L, after that with diagnose connected we will check the level and temperature. There are some steps to follow to check level. I have zf lifeguard fluid 9. It is also Mopar 8&9 speed ATF.

Found this one at the ram promaster forum, but don't know from where the measurements are taken

I’m hoping to order a litre from Fiat when I order the seal.
My local Fiat agent is having problems identifying the seal, hopefully they will have the correct part number tomorrow.

Thanks for your help

Maybe will help you to identify easier by yourself.

@Andyshep please help me with the part number for dipstick. Do you have 2.3 2019-2020?

I assume it's a piece of crappy plastic, ooops, a FIAT special tool and that they charge heavily for it...

 

[vladandrei83]

Of course it's a plastic stick with markings, in Romania is above 80 euro), but i don't have delivery. First of all i need to know if is the proper tool. Let's see the answer from @Andyshep. PN should be: 2000040963

Pardon our interruption...

Is the level taken with the engine running

 

[Abarthmultijet]

Yes, measurement with this type of automatic gearbox is always with engine running

I’d got visions of the dip stick being sucked into the gearbox. LOL

Hi guys, I am not sure how to measure the level with dipstick. I didn't find informations on internet etc. according to tabel chart for 50 degrees need to have 16mm, is it the same 16mm as on dipstick? I am asking because dipstick is long..almost on the transmission bottom and I can't imagine how ~6 liters fit there.
