Updated ZF gear lubricant approvals

Mine takes ATF. I don't have my model number handy but I used this chart some years ago to choose the correct fluid.
 
Mobil Synthetic ATF. I've been using it for years. Nothing better IMHO.

How does the synthetic react with the residual ATF that would still be in the transmission?
 
Maybe I can't see it - but is that Mobil 1 ATF on the ZF list?

I don't see Mobil 1 ATF on this latest list but instead they show Mobil Delvac ATF. Previous lists did show Mobil 1 ATF and also Penzoil conventional
Dexron II which I had religiously used before going synthetic.
Back when our boats were sold ZF was asking for a fluid meeting the Allison C4 criteria which Mobil 1 ATF does.
 
Thanks.......so for some reason it's dropped off the latest approval list. A quick comparison indicates the Delvac is a heavier duty ATF when you compare the applications
