Today in our KM Monsters series; We are together with a bus that has reached a value of 1 million km belonging to the 500T line, which is one of the most famous bus lines in Turkey and one of the few in the world. The 500T bus line starts from Cevizlibağ - Tuzla, Cevizlibağ - Topkapi Yönü stop and goes through 76 stops until it reaches Şifa Sondurak - Sondurak Yönü stop, it takes about 4 hours from start to finish and its length is approximately 84 km.
Especially since it has 76 stops, it is very difficult to withstand the engine and transmission in this line, which has a lot of stop-start. In particular, automatic transmission vehicles may need to undergo a transmission revision every 250,000 km on this line with unconscious use.
The 500T Bus, which is the guest of our video, has a ZF Ecomat 6-speed automatic transmission, however; It's not a joke, it has not undergone any transmission revision for 1 million km. In our video, we will listen in detail from both the owner of the bus, Abdurrahman Kaptan, and the masters of ZF, what it takes for the gearbox to make million km without revision on such a difficult line. Of course, we will show you how to change the transmission oil, which is an important factor in this mileage, together with ZF masters. We hope you like our video, have a good time.
