Overview
The ZF 0730.111.767 WASHER is a precision-engineered thrust washer designed specifically for the WG 200 series transmission. This OEM genuine component sits between the planetary gear set and the housing assembly, providing critical axial clearance control and load distribution during high-torque operation. As part number 0730.111.767, it ensures proper spacing within the rotating assembly, preventing metal-on-metal contact that can lead to premature gear wear. This washer works in conjunction with the 4460115043 HOUSING to maintain correct gear mesh alignment under heavy loads.
Symptoms of Failure
- Transmission oil leaks around the axle drive housing: A worn 0730.111.767 washer can cause misalignment, leading to seal failure at the 4469315012 AXLE DRIVE HOUSING interface.
- Gear slipping under load: When the washer loses its original thickness, axial play increases, causing intermittent gear disengagement during acceleration.
- Metallic grinding noise from the transmission sump: Excessive clearance allows the 0750117406 TAPER ROLLER BEARING to contact adjacent components, producing audible wear debris.
- Vibration during torque converter lockup: A collapsed washer disrupts the preload on the 0750117802 TAPERED ROLLER BEARING, causing harmonic resonance at highway speeds.

Compatibility
This OEM genuine washer is engineered for the ZF WG 200 series transmissions, including models WG180, WG200, and WG210. It is also compatible with certain variants of the ZF Ecomat 4HP and 5HP series that share the same planetary carrier architecture. Always verify the part number 0730.111.767 against your transmission’s serial plate before installation. For applications requiring a replacement 0734319337 SHAFT SEAL, this washer should be inspected simultaneously to prevent recurring leaks.
