Yes have experienced gearbox failures on ACC due to lubrication failure. Only get about 3000 hrs between that and get a lot of varnish. OEM says 4000 hours but cannot make that. Our gearboxes run high oil temps since oil coolers are under sized. Do get not expected oil life, so for now have shortened oil change out interval. Looking to install some type of filtration.
