ZF6 rcommended fluid - Stealership says 6 qts at 25 a pop
HI all. I am servicing the transmission fluid on my Zf6. I went to the stealership and they said full synthetic ATF and their brew is 25 a pop. I saw Mobil and Castrol I believe at the parts store at 9.97, said full synthetic Mercon compatible. Will these do? The stealership brew any better?
Any tips, caveats and gotchas? (I know remove the inspect/top plug first). I tried loosening this morning but was tight and I might need a breaker bar. I hope these are not reverse threaded, but I have puny arms. Can I use PB blaster or are there gaskets I have to worry about.
Thanks

I would not run gear oil or motor oil in the trans, just ATF as recommended. Here's the red line fluid I'm running at almost $11 a qt:
