Dear Sir or Madam,

In the following, we would like to inform you about the new editions of the ZF Lists of Lubricants.

Our latest editions of the ZF Lists of Lubricants are also available via the following link:

New Editions of the ZF Lists of Lubricants

Changes launched by the oil manufacturers
Changes of released commercial products to the ZF lubricant classes launched by the oil manufacturers can be caused by the following reasons:

a.) Formula changes
b.) Change of names
c.) Introduction of new products and removal of products

These changes are continuously processed by us and considered for every new edition of the ZF Lists of Lubricants. As a result of the large number of affected oils, a itemization cannot be implemented here. Before using an oil, we ask you to check the release at the latest ZF List of Lubricants.
