AF40 (Aisin TF-80SC) 6 speed automatic: ATF and valve body

expensive

The Opel AF40 is the GM badged Aisin TF-80SC six speed torque converter automatic (Insignia A, Astra H/J, Zafira B/C and others). If the gearbox oil (ATF) is changed, it keeps working for a long time.

Show the rest

With neglected oil: a harsh N to D engagement, jerking on downshifts, and delayed lock-up. Burnt ATF loses its lubricating and friction properties, and deposits build up in the valve body. A simple drain leaves a lot of old oil in the torque converter, so the job is often a flush, not just a drain and refill.

Workshops recommend an oil change around 60,000 to 80,000 km. The "lifetime fill" promise does not replace that.

between 100,000 and 200,000 km

What to check

  • Try it cold and warm: N to D and R engagement. A strong jolt is suspect
  • Watch the downshifts when slowing: jerking, delay
  • Ask when the last ATF change or flush was done: ask for the invoice

Information, not an expert opinion

We write the descriptions, and we put the source next to them. A person reviews them before they go out. They are still information, not a technical expert opinion.

  • A fault on the list does not mean the car you are looking at has it.
  • A fault missing from the list does not mean the model is fault-free. Write-ups are made model by model. Not all of them are done.
  • You decide whether to buy. This is no substitute for an inspection. That needs a workshop and a history check.
