My wife did the German bit and no complaints from me. The ones she had a look at were all about late delivery. Looking at how 'late' the deliveries were I guess Germans expect it to be exactly on time!Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

That's a stunning price! UK distributors of the same stuff http://aslanol.co.uk/product/atf-ag60/ are about three times the price.

It is an amazing price - you can do a double-flush for less than the price of half a tank of diesel and still have an unused bottle spare.
Really no excuse for not doing routine drain & fills at that price.
I should add that my bottles were dated Dec 2015, so pretty new too. That said, AG60 is a pretty recent product.

Dumb question. Are we sure that different brand fluids can be mixed if they meet the same standard. A double flush will leave about 25% of the original brand in the mix.2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

Miscibility is part of oil and ATF specifications, so no issues if they meet the spec.

Seems they do a 20litre barrel for a decent price as well. not sure whether to get the 20l or just the single litre packs.
What a dilemma! Lol.Bodsys Brake Bible
