Petronas Transmission ZC 75 Synth 75W80

1 litre (35.19 fl.oz.) gearbox oil Petronas Transmission ZC 75 Synth 75W80
Fully synthetic lubricant for mechanical transmissions of passenger cars.
For the use in gear / differential units, including these with hypoid bevel, whenever a lubrication with extreme pressure (E.P.) characteristics is required.

Properties:

• special E.P. / anti-wear additives in order to garantuee optimal protection of the transmission components even in extreme condtitions (starting, acceleration) and with high load at low revs
• specific viscosity grade in order to optimise gear handling at every operating temperature
• eccelent fluency when cold to ensure ecellent shift ability even at the severest temperatures
• optimal adhesiveness of the lubricant in order to ensure optimal protection of the mechanical parts in all conditions of lubrication, prevents excessive mechanical noises
• reduces friction and therefor improves fuel economy
• fully synthetic formulation to ensure an excellent thermal-oxidative resistance, therefor prolonging the period between oil changes

*The owner's manual recommends various types of gearbox oils for the 147 4-cylinder models depending on the age of the car and on the age of the manual.
Tutela Transmission ZC 75 Synth is the correct oil according to Alfa's own online workshop manual.

Most of the above mentioned cars will no longer need a regular gearbox oil service if you believe Alfa Romeo's maintenance plan.
The gearbox oil which is filled into the gearbox during the production of the car is considered to be a "lifetime filling".
Nevertheless it is recommended to replace the gearbox oil after about every 80.000 km to remove all the abrasion which accrues during normal use.
