I searched the forums looking for the procedure to change my V-Drive Fluids and filters. My manuals don't match my ZF 41 IV V-Drive. They have three different models listed, and the closest is a ZF 45 IV. (The manual is in 3 different languages, too. Hard to follow, at first.) The Indmar Engine manual references 4 different models as well. I used that as a cross reference to the ZF transmission manual. See pictures, below.
The ZF manual says to "drain" the fluid from the "filter" (1 procedure for 3 different models. A bit dubious, to start.) I can't find the referenced bolts anywhere under the upper or lower unit. All the forums and Youtube videos show is sucking the fluid out via the dip sticks, which is fine, but does my ZF 41 IV need filters changed? If not, I'm good to go. Just throwing this out there.
