The AG60 is the ‘ZF lifeguard 8’ equivalent, and ZF spec this for the 8 speed gearbox.
The AG55 is the ‘ZF Lifeguard 6’ equivalent for the 6 speed box.
That’s as far as I go, and that what I’ve picked up from here.
The link you posted was for oil primarily intended for the 8 speed box, but no idea if that can be used in the 6 speed box.
The ZF link on this is
https://aftermarket.zf.com/remotemedia/lol....pdf#page4
They also do a page on how to change the oil here
https://aftermarket.zf.com/go/en/aftermark...il-change/
But it’s not something I’ve done.
Not shy about saying, and have said it before, I got Bodsy to flush my box.
So, agree with Pete in saying the link you posted for the AG60 is good stuff, but not sure it’s the right stuff for your box. Think you need to look at the AG55, but that’s anecdotal from what I learned here, not evidence based knowledge on my part.
I really have no idea if you can use the 8 speed stuff in a 6 speed box, but from reading the ZF stuff it’s doesnt look recommended.
