The Soviets attacked Romania on August 20, 1944 near Iasi and established bridgeheads across the River Prut. The German 6th and 8th Armies were involved in the fighting. I think the GrossDeutchland Division was one of those involved.
Exactly which panzers were employed I can't say. Maybe a search for the battle of Iasi might provide more specific data.
Hope this helped.
