PROFI-CAR Xtra-SHIFT 8HP is a high-performance synthetic automatic transmission fluid (ATF) specially developed for modern ZF 6-, 8- and 9-speed automatic transmissions used in high-powered vehicles. Its formulation is designed to provide reliable lubrication, protection and shifting performance under a wide range of operating conditions.
The fluid provides high load capacity and outstanding wear minimisation, helping protect transmission components against mechanical stress during demanding operation. It also features exceptional friction-coefficient consistency, which supports stable and controlled transmission operation.
PROFI-CAR Xtra-SHIFT 8HP is formulated to deliver excellent gear-shifting characteristics at low temperatures, while its specially adapted friction characteristics are intended to support the requirements of sporty-style shifting. This makes the fluid suitable for applications where precise and responsive transmission operation is required.
The formulation also provides outstanding oxidation and thermal stability, helping maintain fluid performance under elevated operating temperatures. Very low evaporation loss helps reduce fluid loss during operation, while anti-foaming characteristics support consistent hydraulic performance.
The fluid is recommended by PROFI-CAR for a range of applications including BMW 83222289720, VW G 060 162, Chrysler 68157995AA, Fiat 9.55550-AV5, Jaguar 02JDE26444, Land Rover LR023288 and ZF 5671 090 312. These are listed by the manufacturer as recommended applications, so they should not be presented as separate OEM approvals.
PROFI-CAR specifically states that Xtra-SHIFT 8HP is not suitable for DCT/DSG dual-clutch transmissions or CVT continuously variable transmissions. The vehicle and transmission manufacturer’s fluid requirements should always be checked before use.
