'Wish list' Clive? You can get one from e-bay for about the price of three gallons of diesel.

Transmission fluid is not cheap, so maybe you should consider postponing a change until later? Beinet1 has now shown the level plug clearly on the far right hand side of his photograph above. Simon

Excellent how to, but still makes me wonder:
Do you start with a hot engine like Haynes describes? When the level plug (allen key) is removed is the engine still running then, likes Haynes says to do? They also recommend to select all the gears again while levelling. But how long does it taken to warm up the autobox oil when the car is not riding = no load on the auto...? I suppose after the refill of the first 4l, the fresh oil wil be mixed inside the box with the remaining oil and in this way also partly be flushed out through the cooler. So these steps maybe need to be done 2x or 3x to have 'all' the old oil out? I don't understand Ford Perfect's addition, how can fresh oil be drawn into the gearbox? Do you need 2 containers connected then? a full fresh one on the filler plug and a empty one on the oilcooler connection? |
