ZF Transmision Lag

Postby rfverdery » June 28th, 2022, 1:50 am

I have twin ZF280A transmissions mounted to twin Volvo TAMD 480P’s. The port engine has developed a 5-7 second delay in the detent position going in fwd or reverse, past the detent response is immediate pulled the screen on the from the aft end all was clean, oil only has 50 hours on it and maintained proper level since changing. Anyone have any ideas. This is a 2001 Carver 466. Thanks for any ideas!

Do you have electronic controls or cable shift ?

A good source for diesel engines/trans is boatdiesel forum.
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.
