ZF 4108.016.012 P 4300 | OEM Genuine Part

Genuine ZF P 4300 (Part No. 4108.016.012). Also referenced as: 4108016012 / 4108.016.012 / 4108 016 012.

Overview

The ZF 4108.016.012 P 4300 is an OEM genuine pressure control valve assembly, engineered specifically for the hydraulic control unit within heavy-duty ZF transmissions. This component regulates clutch engagement pressure, ensuring smooth power delivery in construction machinery. As part number 4108.016.012, it sits directly within the main valve body, interfacing with the 4108101108: HOUSING to direct oil flow. The valve’s precision spool and bore maintain consistent hydraulic pressure, preventing erratic shifting under high torque loads. Its robust steel construction withstands the thermal and mechanical stress common in excavators and wheel loaders.

Symptoms of Failure

  • Delayed or harsh gear engagement – When the valve spool sticks, hydraulic pressure spikes, causing jarring shifts during acceleration or deceleration.
  • Intermittent transmission slipping – Worn internal seals allow pressure loss, leading to clutch pack slip under load, especially in low gears.
  • Hydraulic oil contamination – Debris from a failing valve can circulate through the system, accelerating wear on the 4108301436: INPUT SHAFT and bearings.
  • Visible external leakage – Cracks in the valve body or degraded O-rings cause oil seepage around the 4108306172: GASKET mating surface.
