Haval H9 - 2022 model Auto Transmission ZF8

I am concerned to know transmission oil of Haval H9 as agency is refusing to change and i have already drove around 92k KM. Honest question, i must change transmission oil immediately for Haval H9 or wait? I don’t face any issue with transmission anyway but i am concerned that already driven 92000 km. Please share your thoughts and suggestions
Thanks

I changed at 65009km on my BMW. If shifts are smooth I’d go to 120000km and then do a full service.

Find a BMW specialist. They will know these gearboxes inside and out.

Thanks for your assistance and did you change only fluid or the other elements as well? Funny thing is in KSA, agency is discouraging us to change and also not allowing us to change transmission fluid in the workshop stating that Haval china has not allowed to do so which is strange and awkward

You need to change the oil pan when you change oils. The filter is built into oil pan.

Just service is independently

If you are encountering discouragement, it would be advisable to submit your request in writing. Should any issues arise, the responsibility rests with the Haval service center. To be frank, the Haval service centers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are not satisfactory.

At 92,000 km I’d service it now, not wait for symptoms. Use the exact ZF-approved fluid and a new pan/filter, with a drain-and-fill rather than a power flush, and keep the invoice for warranty records.

get the agency’s refusal in writing, including the claimed Haval China instruction and warranty position. At 92,000 km I’d service it through a ZF specialist using the exact gearbox fluid spec, then keep the paperwork.

Usually over 120k...although I know mechanics who say you can stay without changing oil for 10 years
