Transmission general data The 6-speed automatic gearbox ZF 6HP19 /A (09 ) has been installed on RWD and AWD BMW models, as well as on FWD and AWD Audi models (as 6HP19A). This transmission can be paired with engines with capacity up to 3.5 liters. ZF 6HP19 was constructed jointly with ZF6HP26 as a “light” modification. Aisin’s TR-60S and VW's DSG-6 are considered the main competitors of this ZF unit. VAG is the main user of ZF transmission solutions. In 2006, ZF released 6HP21 and 6HP28 modifications. These two units have the same new Mechatronic unit of the 2nd generation with improved gear shifting mechanism. ZF engineers also improved the valve body, replaced solenoids, replaced some friction elements and almost all steel plates Number of gearsTransmission TypeDriveTorque (Nm)ATF (full capacity) LATF (change) LATF type6ATFWD/RWD/AWD42094Shell M-1375.4 Technical issues and repair guidelines ZF recommends changing ATF in this transmission no later than after covering 100 thousand kilometers or after 8 years of running under the condition of "careful" driving style. The amount of required ATF for a full change is 9.5 L. This gear shifting unit operates with any good quality fluid such as Dexron VI. It is advisable to make two partial fluid changes in case of contaminated fluid and at the same time to change the filter. Transmission specialists usually replace solenoids when the car with this transmission reaches high mileages and problems with gear shifting. The torque converter is also rebuilt in the process solenoid replacement.The complete reassembly includes removal of the transmission unit, and order of the repair kit of gaskets and seals. In the process of reassembly, the whole set of friction components is replaced, especially when ATF gets burned. The full kit of bushings is replaced as well. Typical problems of ZF 6HP19-21 The most common problem for powerful cars equipped with this transmission is the torque converter. Its locking mechanism became regulated and forced from the first gear.The main problem of 6HP19\21 – is the Mechatronic unit. Electronic components are sensitive to temperature drops and falls– too high and too low oil temperatures as well as the presence of metal chips are undesirable factors for this transmission.The main spare part of 6HP valve body became the separator plate of the valve body. Structural peculiarities of this gear shifting unit (vibrations of torque converter and pump stator, operating with oil shortage...) lead to fast wearing of bushings.The wear of bushings results in pressure losses in corresponding packages and the control unit opens electromagnetic valves of solenoids more and more in order to compensate oil shortages. Common replacement part – the pump seal, and less frequently - output shaft seal. Transmission specialists frequently replace worn pump bearings. The main problem for the 6HP19 unit in winter time is replacement of the adapter to the block of solenoids (also called as “Sleeve”). It is recommended to replace the “Sleeve" within the framework of the sheduled repair without waiting for its damage. The common spare part in summer time is the adapter to mechatronics. This adapte, included in some repair kits, has a short service life and recommended for change each 2-4 years. With this repair part, it is also advisable to replace sealing tubes of the valve body.

Transmission general data This 6-speed automatic transmission was designed by ZF jointly with BMW. Since 2001 this transmission has been used for all high priced vehicles with rear-wheel drive and engines with the capacity of up to 6 litres. The list of brands using this transmission includes Bentley, Aston Martin and Maserati. Since 2006 this transmission has been used in Ford, Hyundai, Jaguar, Land Rover.The 6HP26A modification found application on FWD Audi and VW models. It has the torque capacity of up to 600Nm.This 1-st 6-speed automatic transmission from ZF triggered the start of production for next generations of this family - 6HP19 -21 intended for engines with lower torque (up to 420 Nm) and 6HP32 – for max torque (up to 750 Nm). Number of gearsTransmission TypeDriveTorque (Nm)ATF (full capacity) LATF (change) LATF type6ATFWD/RWD/AWD420126Shell M-1375.4 6HP26 Specs The gearbox is controlled by a revolutionary for that time TCM (transmission control module) named the ZF 6HP Mechatronic / Mechatronik. The 6HP26 torque converter boasted an innovative lockup system with a peculiar mechanism, which facilitated lockup in all 6 gears. Multiple gear ratios in the ZF 6HP26 transmission were housed inside a small area, using a conventional planetary gearset and a gear assembly designed by P.Ravigneaux. Power transfer actions are covered by 5 clutch packs. At that, compared to its predecessor, the ZF 5HP, this 6-speed transmission used fewer parts and was lighter 6HP26 Typical problems, technical issues and repair guidelines Typical problems for this transmission family includes: vibrations which lead to wear of bushings and drum Е resulting in problems with 4-5-6 gears shifting; issues with other speeds caused by wear of solenoids and torque converter lock-up result in problems with the pump and seal leakage, slippage of frictions (slow acceleration) which leads to overheating, burnt oil and necessity for automatic transmission reassembly with the use of repair kits. 6HP26 Mechatronic problems The mechatronics unit is similar to the one used in 6HP19 and they have the same problems. There are two generations of valve bodies.VFS (Variable Force) solenoids frequently become the source of numerous issues. Intensive operation on cross-section in the environment of contaminated fluid and high temperature leads to premature wear and abnormal operation. Mechatronics in these ZF automatic transmissions are sensitive to static electricity, even when touching contacts with your hands. 6HP26 Mechatronic Seal Issues Issue: a range of common 6HP26 transmission are frequently due to loss of pressure from the required level caused by the wear or failure of the small seal between the 6HP26 transmission mechatronic controller and the transmission case. If it fails, the following 6HP26 transmission problems will manifest themselves: Unexpected 6HP26 clutches failure,Transmission pump malfunction,Failure of the torque converter clutch. Solution: replacement and reinstallation of the 6HP26 Mechatronic adapter seal. 6HP26 Pump problems Worn pump bearing and pump stator are frequently replaced during maintenance services. Problems of both abovementioned parts are related to worn components of torque converters and related vibrations. Typical replacement operation of the first priority is related to the overheating and aging of the rubber: - Separator plate of the valve body, 6HP26/ 6HP19.Overdrive Е package with frictions, steel and thrust discs gets burned first from clutch packs. The same problem is typical for structurally similar 6HP19.The problem in winter time – replacement of the adapter to the solenoid assembly. 6HP26 Torque converter problems The torque converter is a common problem for powerful vehicles equipped with this transmission. If repair specialists order bushings, then it means the torque converter repair as well.After the overhaul it is required to reset computer settings. This family of ZF6HP transmissions is in great demand in the repair business and at the same time is considered to be as repairable as its predecessor - 5HP19. The service life of this transmission can reach 1 “million” kilometers under the condition of timely and accurate overhaul of the transmission (as well as maintenance). Excessive wear of the TC clutch in the 6HP26 torque converter due to active lockup triggered even at as low as 1st gear. Subsequently, drivers can experience the following problems: Delays in engaging the right gear,Slipping gears,Unpredictable up/down shifting,Excessive heating of the transmission,Unusual noises from the transmission. Solution: key to remedying the ZF 6HP26 torque converter problems is installation of a new / replacement torque converter unit. Torque converter repair specialist might effectively use certain special tools helpful in the remanufacturing procedure. It is also important to remember to address replacement of the excessively worn transmission fluid and issues with cooling. 6HP26 Solenoid Issues Issue: different gear ratios are controlled by 7 solenoids and if one of these 6HP26 solenoids becomes damaged or worn out, following problems arise: Delays in shifts,Sticking gears,Refusal to turn a gear,Slipping gears. Solution: a serious number of common problems with 6HP26 transmission is due to valve body solenoids failures. The right approach to remedy this is replacement of the faulty 6HP26 solenoid. Solenoid testing equipment is recommended to identify the damaged one. 6HP26 E Clutch failure Issue: wear out of the 6HP26 clutches, which are key in power transfer from one gear to the next. Friction material used in the clutches is important for grabbing. Improper maintenance or reckless driving will wear them out prematurely. The common 6HP26 clutch failure symptoms are as follows: Clutch slipping,Delays in shifts,Harsh shifts,Failure of gear engagement,Excessive heating. Solution: rebuilding or replacement of the transmission unit corrects this common 6HP26 transmission issue.

Transmission general data The TR60-SN (09D according to VAG) is an innovative 6-speed automatic transmission designed by Aisin and released in 2003 for RWD Porsche Cayenne equipped with a 4-liter engine. This transmission was designed simultaneously with the first 6-speed automatic transmission for FWD cars - TF60-SN and was tested since 2001 on a 2-liter Altezza This transmission was supposed to be a leader in the world of luxury brands such as Porsche, Audi, Lexus and become a competitor to the new 6-speed ZF6HP transmission. Audi use 09D for Q7 SUVs with diesel engines from 3 to 4.2 liters. EAW TR-60SN has been successfully used since 2007 in powerful (over 4.6l) RWD and AWD Lexus and Land Cruiser SUVs. There are several sub-modifications of this transmission for its torque class, differing in planetary gears, quantity of clutches and steel discs, the size of some of the units and parts. It was replaced by the 8-speed transmission TR80-SD. This transmission was designed by the Aisin to become "invincible", like all of its RWD automatic transmission. But each automaker customized its TCM (transmission computer) in "democratic" fashion, enabling drivers to use its capacities to the fullest extent. Number of gearsTransmission TypeDriveTorque (Nm)ATF (full capacity) LATF (change) LATF type6ATRWD/AWD128Toyota WS Technical issues and repair guidelines The repair kit of gaskets and seals is always ordered with filters for reassembly procedure. It is usually ordered for changing teflon rings which must be changed to save friction components and the pump with solenoids. If the car is used with worn out teflon rings, then the friction elements get burnt and the rubber seals get harder because of the temperature.The overhaul is always accompanied by the replacement of burnt frictions and steel disks for K1, K2, B1 clutches. The reason is usually related to clogged valve body, solenoids, and seals. It is expressed in slippage of clutches under load or delays with shifting of gears. The most problematic components of 09D: The main problem of 09D installed in Volkswagen is related to clogging and breakdown of the hydraulic clutch plate with solenoids caused by ATF overheating and burning of the hydraulic clutch friction lining.The torque converter is usually handed in for repair in order to replace worn-out clutch lock-up.The wiring of solenoids often causes some malfunction. Older transmissions are provided with external fine filter.Valve bodies for Tuareg are often handed in for repair. For these transmissions it is recommended to take measures on improving the transmission cooling system, for example, by installing an additional radiator. It is also advised to check the ATF condition and change it as soon as it gets darker and loses transparency.

Transmission general data The 5-speed automatic transmission ZF5HP19 (with ./FL ../FLA modifications) - is considered to be one of the most popular automatic transmissions in the repair industry. Although this transmission was replaced by no less popular ZF6HP26 - 6HP19, this 5-speed unit is still widely used and repaired. It should be noted that the popularity of this transmission among repair specialists has nothing to do with its quality, on the contrary, this efficient transmission was installed on extremely durable cars. It is the case when good cars get a good transmission. First 5HP19 units were introduced in 1995 on front-wheel and all-wheel drive Audi. These gear shifting solutions were designed on the basis of 4-speed 4HP18 and 5-speed 5HP18 (thus, most of components in these transmissions are identical). The main peculiarity of 5HP19 is higher torque in comparison with 5HP18 and that it can be paired with engines up to 4 litres. The FL version of this transmission was designed for the line-up of FWD models from Audi-Volkswagen. The 5HP19FLА transmission is designed for 4WD cars with V6 engines. The 5HP19 unit found application in rear-driven BMW cars. According to VAG classification, ZF 5HP19 transmission is also known as 01L or 01V (for some vehicles). Number of gearsTransmission TypeDriveTorque (Nm)ATF (full capacity) LATF (change) LATF type5ATRWD/AWD/FWD3259,74-5,5LT -71141 Technical issues and repair guidelines The repair kit of gaskets and seals for BMW is the most popular kit ordered for this transmission. The kit of frictions is also included in a standard order for this transmission. The operational resource of this transmission before the first overhaul is significantly higher than standard 120,000 miles, but this parameter heavily depends on operating conditions. This reliable transmission can endure operation under severe conditions and heavy loads, but oil starvation will have a negative impact on its operability. The torque converter of this transmission is one of the most frequently repaired units. This torque converter is one of the first converters with early introduced ( 3-rd speed) forced lock-up mechanism, which damages the friction lining. The pump cover bushing is one of the most frequently replaced elements. As for friction discs in the 5HP19 transmission, in most cases repair specialists have to replace discs of the first "С" package near the pump. The replacement of friction components is always accompanied by replacement of sealing rings as the wear-out of these rings leads to burning of friction packages. The pressure solenoid (EDS-1 EPC) is loaded more in comparison with solenoids, therefore it works out its resource earlier.

Transmission general data In 1991, the 4-speed automatic transmission (A/T) 01N (097) successfully replaced another popular transmission solution named as 090. It was designed for FWD Audi cars (A4, A6, etc.) equipped with engines from 1.6l to 2.6l. It was also installed on some VW Passats with different longitudinally positioned engines with the capacity up to 1.9 liters.The transmission, manufactured from 1991 to 2004, has three modifications corresponding to their production years: 1991-95; 1996-1998; 1999-04. Thus, these versions have some differences in the design of transmission components.VW have similar modifications of this family: 098/01P – the engine is located transversely in minibuses and MPVs. VW Sharan, VW T2/T4, VW Eurovan, Ford Galaxy; 095/096/01M – the engine is located transversally for VW and SСODA cars.These automatic transmissions differ in housings and differentials. Number of gearsTransmission TypeDriveTorque (Nm)ATF (full capacity) LATF (change) LATF type4ATFWD28063,8LT 71141 Technical issues and repair guidelines The 01N (together with 098/01P and 095/096/01M) - the leader among Audi-VW transmissions in repair frequency. The 01N steadily holds the third place in demand, behind only a younger family U140-240 and the unconditional leader 5HP19(FL).This transmission is very reliable, maintainable, simple, and some problems usually occur only after large mileages. Often transmission specialists change only the burned-out 3-4 (K3) packs and Forward-Rev together with bearing discs, separate plastic bearings, gaskets, pump and seals. Electric components and the valve body units usually have tha same issues as in the 01M transmission. The torque converter is the main source of faulty operation of the valve body. The sooner the torque converter lock-up lining is replaced, the less is the wear-out of solenoids and the valve body. The standard order for reassembly of the old 01N transmission includes filter and complete kits: Overhaul kit, Frictions, Pistons. Ordered Kits: -Kit of gaskets and seals; -Kit of friction components, usually ordered with the kit of steel discs; -Kit of pistons is the same for 01M-N-P, and it is ordered for most major repairs.

Transmission general data The legendary 4-speed automatic transmission 01M of Audi-Volswagen own manufacture (preceded by 095 / 096 models) has been produced for 20+ years, from 1995, for all popular FWD VW, Seat and Skoda (as well as Audi А3) vehicles with engines from 1.6l to 2.0l positioned transversally. The most popular transmission in rebuilding is the 096 transmision. It had been assembled at some Volkswagen factories until 2009, while the 01M has been installed on the Passat series (China) up to the date. The German factories used the the 01N unit on the Passat series with various engines (A4, A6, Cabrio). The less popular modification 01P (its predecessor is 098) capable of transferring a higher torque was used with up to 2.8l engines in VW Sharan, VW T2/T4, VW Eurovan, Ford Galaxy (micro buses and minivans). In terms of design, this transmission is similar to the 01M and these models have many compatible spare parts.The 097 transmission had been used in Audi 80 and 100 models unil 1995, when it was replaced by not less reliable 01N. This family of automatic transmissions was the last masterpiece of VW-Audi Group, which tried to stay competitive on the automatic transmission market. The 5-speed ZF 5HP19 released in 1995 smoked the competition, and VAG soon decided to close the production of its automatic transmissions and started using products of Aisin Warner and ZF. Number of gearsTransmission TypeDriveTorque (Nm)ATF (full capacity) LATF (change) LATF type4ATFWD2006,53,8LT 71141, 75W90 GL4 Technical issues and repair guidelines One of the peculiarities of the 01M transmission lies in the transversal positioning of the unit. Therefore, VAG engineers also had to add a differential with a separate lubrication system (i.e. oil for it is tested and replaced separately).Gasket and seal repair kit (Overhaul kit) for the 01M is frequently ordered for the transmission repair. Rebuilding procedures, especially when there is burnt oil, require a full set of the friction components. The list of 01M vulnerabilities includes the following: The rubber hardens and poorly endures pressure, especially in winter. Older vehicles and overheated automatic gearboxes have the full set of rubber-coated pistons replaced in them.The drum 3-4 may become worn out due to breaking of the basket along the axle of the shaft.The green front drum washer - plastic sliding bearing - melts or becomes brittle due to the temperature and lateral pressure effect.It is believed that 8-10 years is the average normal lifespan for all 01M-01N electrical components, including sensors. After this term, the resistance of its wiring starts to increase, the channel gets worn out, the characteristics of the valve closure change, and the computer "rejects" them.The Valve Body requires regular cleaning. For vehicles that covered over 150-200 thousand km this procedure is a “must”. (As well as Torque Converter rebuilding)ATF contamination comes from the Torque Converter and is a result of the dust flow from friction linings and worn out bearing washer. Contaminated ATF blocks channels and corrodes metal of these channels at some most loaded valves of the Hydraulic unit.

Transmission general data The 01J CVT transmission ( 0AN Multitronic or VL-300) was produced by Audi collaboratively with the company LuK GmbH & Co in 2002 for popular AWD models А4, А6, А8 with engines from 1.8 up to 3 liters. It transmits up to 310 Nm of torque. Audi came up with a lot of names for different sub-modifications of this transmission, but all these CVTs versions have basically the same design and internal components and can be repaired with the help of the same repair kits. Number of gearsTransmission TypeDriveTorque (Nm)ATF (full capacity) LATF (change) LATF type∞CVTFWD3107,54,5G 052 180 A2 Technical issues and repair guidelines The main reason for visiting a repair shop with this durable CVT during the first years of exploitation is the necessity to replace the filter and ATF (G 052 180 A2). About 4.5 liters are required for partial ATF change. Complete ATF change via double partial change - requires 7.5 liters. This CVT is sensitive to the CVT quiality (level and cleanness). It is recommended to perform the ATF change after travelling 40-60 thousand kilometers, but the older CVT unit, the sooner the replacement should be performed. Opaque ATF is the sign that it is a high time to visit the nearest repair shop. The structure of CVT 01J is especially sensitive to ATF contamination. The usage of contaminated ATF and clogged filter leads to the premature damage of the transmission components.The common order for the overhaul of this CVT includes the repair kit of gaskets and seals. Another typical spare part for repair of this transmission is an ejection pump. The ejection pump is made of plastic and operates on the principle of an "atomizer". As in all atomizers, this system is sensitive to cleanness and temperature of the ATF. It gets clogged very quickly and channels wear out. Usage of contaminated and hot ATF leads to low efficiency and such oil should be changed together with other spare parts. Problems with this pump result in some issues with friction elements. Vulnerabilities of 01J: The structural design of this CVT exploits a pulling mechanism. Such mechanism exhausts its performance potential quite early, because of stretching loads and frictions, therefore it is changed during each CVT overhaul (after covering 100 thousand kilometers). Usually the pulling plates are replaced together with the pulling mechanism.The CVT design excludes the possibility of cars towing, otherwise it may lead to lethal consequences for CVT cones and as a result serious problems for transmission itself. Cones are the primary resource of the CVT unit The control unit of CVT Multitronik VL-300 (with the resource no higher than 100 thousand kilometers) is a common soft spot of electrics for CVTs and 6-speed gearboxes of the first generations.Another serious problem (less frequently met) is the differential.It is strongly recommended to pay much attention to the differential condition during the overhaul. If there is a problem with the differential then the gearbox can be considered “dead”. The replacement of 01J differential is a practically impossible task. Generally, this sophisticated and accurately adjusted gearbox operates quite well in new cars, but after 150-200 thousand kilometers the usage of this transmission reminds a “Russian roulette”.
