Description

Motul DEXRON II-D is a mineral Dexron II-type fluid for automatic gearboxes, torque converters, power steering and hydraulic systems. It suits cars and commercial-vehicle transmissions, as well as marine reversing gearboxes.

The fluid holds official MAN 339 Type V1, MAN 339 Type Z1, MB 236.7, Voith H55.6335.32, ZF TE-ML 04D, ZF TE-ML 11A and ZF TE-ML 14A approvals. It meets the requirements of GM Dexron II-D, Allison TES 228 and CAT TO-2 without official approval.

Typical figures: kinematic viscosity 7.8 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 179, pour point -36 °C, flash point 224 °C. Available in 1 and 208 litres.

Application

Automatic gearboxes, torque converters, power steering and hydraulic systems in cars and commercial vehicles specified for a Dexron II fluid.

Worth knowing

The data sheet gives the number ZF001104 against three ZF classes at once: TE-ML 04D, 11A and 14A. These are three different ZF lists: 04 covers marine gearboxes, 11 the manual, automated manual and automatic gearboxes of passenger cars, and 14 the Ecomat automatics, so one formulation is approved for three families of units.

Motul DEXRON III from the same line also holds ZF TE-ML 04D and 14A approvals, but under a different number, ZF001008, and under a different Mercedes-Benz list, MB 236.9. Its data sheet has neither ZF TE-ML 11A nor the MB 236.7 list, so where a unit’s documentation specifically calls for one of them, only DEXRON II-D of the two carries the mark. The pour points differ too: -36 °C for DEXRON II-D and -48 °C for DEXRON III. What the list numbers and the letters of the TE-ML classes mean, and why a ZF number belongs to a formulation, is explained in the article on ZF TE-ML and other gear oil approvals.
