Default Re: Would you service a ZF with 200,000 kms?

I would have serviced it 3 times by now.

Having had 15 or so box changes in the cabs using them, most got over 300000kms before playing up, best was 500000 for a cab only an old guy drove, worst was about 175000 twice.

All serviced the same, first at 100000kms when out of warranty, then every 50000kms with new oil and filter. Have tried various oils...seems to be no difference either.

By "playing up" I mean they would go to limp mode once or twice a day...taxi drivers wont put up with that...a private driver might.
