After completed it says click for details:

Nothing about shipping.

I'd say communication is pretty far down the to do list.

I just sent a message through the webform. We'll see what happens, I'd say this is verifying why I don't like dealing with companies that don't share phone info.
No input of any kind in the 2 business days since I placed the order and imho worse no response to the webform request for shipping info.

I guess my policy to do business with companies that provide a phone number isn't so hairbrained.

I'd never order from them again.

Just did the tranny oil change on my '02 4.6is w/ 134k on it. Old oil didn't look too bad, and there was just a little bit of sludge on each of the 4 magnets.

I got the "kit" from bavauto that included a new gasket, drain/fill plugs, and 7 liters of ZF Lifeguard fluid.

I was able to add just over 3 liters initially, and then after starting the car and putting the transmission through all the gears and back in park with the engine still running, I was able to add all the remaining oil, and oil still did not start coming out the fill hole. Btw, the car was perfectly level on a lift, so it was not tilted to the driver's side or anything like that.

I was surprised that I ran out of oil before the tranny was full. From reading this and other threads, it seems that 6 quarts/liters is about all this 5 speed tranny will hold without draining the torque converter.

Does the 4.6is have a larger oil capacity tranny?

I guess I'll call bavauto and order some more, but hopefully I'm pretty close to full and won't hurt the tranny driving it around with "only" 7 liters of fresh oil in there.

The ‘034’ model of the 5HP24 for the 4.6is uses a 280mm torque converter (L51) whereas the 4.4i ‘029’ model is fitted with a smaller 260mm unit (F38). ZF state that the ex-works fluid capacity for the ‘034’ is 9.88 litres and for the ‘029’ it is 9.00 litres. Presumably the oil cooler and its feed and return pipes are additional to this. I’ll take a photo of the two torque converters side-by-side this evening and post it here – the difference between them is quite obvious.

Thanks Phil.

I went to bavauto's web site, and put in a 4.4 and looked at the tranny fluid capacity, and it stated 6.0 liters. When I changed to the 4.6, is showed 6.2 liters. Go figure.

Now I did leave the tranny pan off for over a week with a catch pan below it, and it dip continue to drip oil for days, but I'm pretty sure it didn't drip 0.8 liters worth!

I would have thought the oil in the torque converter would be stuck there unless sucked out by force.

Drive it to work this morning, and everything appears fine. Never did have an issue before, but at 134k, I figured it was time (I only just purchased the car in the spring with 133k on it and have been fixing it up).

Actually the 20mm diameter difference between the two torque converters doesn’t particularly show up well in this photo



but you can certainly tell when you pick it up how much bigger the 4.6is converter is.
