JF506E / 09B 5 speed ATF: alternatives 05-19-2008 03:00 PM #1
I've been lurking for some time now, soaking up info around working onthe 09B 5 speed on my Sharan.
Thanks for sharing so much info.
Because I found info on the ATF to be rather limited (apart from complaints on the cost!), I started poking around on Jatco's site and some other ATF-related forums. I found the following in a Jaguar forum as the X-type sports the same box. So here goes a cross reference of JF506E equipped vehicles and the related ATF type:
2002+ Volkswagen GTI
2002-03 VW Jetta
2004+ VW Golf
VW calls the Jatco a "09A" 5sp Tiptronic which calls for fluid part # G 052 990 A2
(No mention of 09B 5spd )
2002+ Land Rover Freelander
Land Rover calls the jatco what it is "JF506E" which calls for LRN402G aka Texaco N402 fluid
2002-? Mazda MPV 5f31j
2003-? Mazda 6 5f31j
Mazda calls the jatco a "5f31j" which calls out M-III ATF fluid (this is a specific mazda fluid)
Jaguar X-Type
Calls for the following fluid specs
Esso LT 71141; Shell ATF 3403 M115; Shell M1375.4; MERCON V XT-5-QM ATF; IDEMITSU K17; Jatco 3100 PL085
The author then cross-referenced the type-specific requirements and this oil meets the grade: Castrol Import Multi-Vehicle ATF as it meets the following:
Volkswagen - G052 990
Land Rover - Texaco N402
Jaguar - Shell M1375.4 (also Idemitsu's K17 and BMW's LT71141)

The URL I used is at http://www.jaguarforums.com/m_50821/printable.htmI think it's worth a look considering the price difference compared to OEM ATF..... comments?


The above thread appears to have orginally been posted on this Jaguar forum http://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x-...tf-found-5444/
