Great video. ☺️ I just subscribed to your RUclips channel. ☺️ I love the ZF Ecomate gearbox, it's one of the best sounding gearboxes that I've ever heard and this is the first time seeing one in action with no cover on. ☺️
EEEEEEEEEEEEEE EYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO oh that sound oh my god we have 2nd gen nova lfs buses here in vancouver that have zf 6hp 554c gearboxes that sound absolutely magnificent
@@emmareporter Unfortunately i dont know all i know is that they were made in Turkey and are still used in Sofia there isnt a lot of data on them sadly
Do you know why when buses are idleing that have a zf gearbox, that it starts making a sound and the negine revs up and the zf makes a sound? it happened at 0:19 and stopped at 0:26.
Sure, that's because of the NBS function. It's called Neutral bei Stillstand in german (~Neutral bus stop), which means that the gearbox puts itself in neutral while the bus stands still, even if the gear selector is in D (or any other gear, like 1, 2, 3, R). This function has been used in ZF gearboxes from the early '90s, and has an easily recognisable sound in the Ecomat series (however there are a few exceptions, where the function has been disabled and no longer works).
@@zf_ecomat I had a BMW 335d with a ZF transmission and it had the same feature. You put it in drive and hold on the brake but slightly release brake and you could feel the drive take up.
Of course I can, I had the opportunity thanks to a good friend and a very helpful driver who was his acquaintance, and let us open the gearbox hatch while driving to the depot.
@@marcusw.525 It's an OM906LA, the Euro 3 version of it. You're absolutely right, these sound amazing as well - I like the Euro 2 variant the most, but all Mercedes engines are great.

Hands down this gotta be one of the most beautiful sound in this entire universe
Definitely it makes my hair stand on end and get chills it's thats awesome
Have you ever heard a ZF S6-90 or a ZF S6-1550? They sound even better than the automatic ones.
The AT-545 is the best in my opinion but this is right beside it.
6:21 1st gear unlocked 👌
8:21 double downshift?
I think this furthermore seals the 5HP502 being my favourite ZF gearbox, absolutely astonishing sound, I would never get bored of being on that!
0:30 😍😍😍

ZF is proubably the coolest sounding transmition i love it. on MB o345g it has one of the coolest sounds
Absolutely awesome love the high pitched revs absolute masterpiece
Congratulations for 300 subs! This 5HP502 is pure gold! ❤️

Wir hatten das in unserem citaro mü der leider am 19.12.2022 mit 800.001km ausgebrannt ist 😭😔😫
4:40 j'aime trop le son
Can you please share how did you get the chance of filming like this?
Of course I can, I had the opportunity thanks to a good friend and a very helpful driver who was his acquaintance, and let us open the gearbox hatch while driving to the depot.
@@zf_ecomat thats just awesome
Its just like when I occasionally go to Sofia tram depot to drive trams
I miss the whine that the Ecomat had.
What engine is in this?
Is it the OM926?
I know the box is the star of the show but that engine sounds mean when it's at full speed.
@@marcusw.525 It's an OM906LA, the Euro 3 version of it. You're absolutely right, these sound amazing as well - I like the Euro 2 variant the most, but all Mercedes engines are great.
🔝WOOW I LOVE IT 😍🔝
Is it 4 gears or 5
5
simple orientation aid: when 4hp is indicated, it is a four-speed transmission, when 5hp, then five-speed and when 6hp, then six-speed ☺️
Yeah I already figured it out im just too blind for obvious things like this

Remek videó lett! Nekem is készült hasonló :) ruclips.net/video/WNW2yt6U9yA/видео.html
