ZF lifeguard fluid 9 or ZF lifeguard fluid 8 ???

Dear All,

I am driving a 2020 X5 40I Xdrive and recently just replaced the ZF LG 8 transmission oil at 100k mileage.

However, right after the transmission oil replacement, I immediately felt that my car is a bit sluggish and the throttle response are not as quick as before the transmission oil replacement.

My gearbox is GA8HP51X and the transmission fluid part number is 83222289720. I have checked online and found both ZF 8 and ZF LG9 also carry this OEM number : (

And now I am a bit confused here and not sure did I went with the wrong transmission oil that caused the sluggishness of my gearbox ??

I would be very much appreciated it if someone can enlighten me a bit more on this as I really cant find useful information online to clear my doubt here.

Thanks in advance !
