An automatic gearbox is maintained to keep it serviceable for a long time by changing the fluid and filters at regular intervals. The entire system should also be flushed periodically to remove contaminants.
on the front of the gearbox there is a Black plastic pipe with a lid going over it, take the lid off and top up. Be care full not to over fill. This is on the T4 2.5TDi. The black pipe dimensions is about 3/4 of an inch in diameter and 4 inches long
it can mean serious problems. If the gearbox has gone into limp mode it will take a long time to build up speed because it only uses 3rd gear in drive. reverse will still work. The tiptronic will not work. The revs will be high on the motorway.
Yes as long as it is automatic transmission.
You will need a special Vauxhall service item called a Long Tool Hoffer. This will enable you to drain off the torque converter and the bastile. The filter must be changed and the old oil poured down the drain.
it takes about 16 to 20 hours
It depends on who the manufacturer was, is it an automatic or manual transmission, how long the warranty is valid for, and how often the fluids are changed. If noises and vibrations are coming from your gearbox, odds are that you need to service it, or that it needed to be serviced some time ago. You can tell how well a gearbox operates by how smoothly it shifts. The expected life for most is the same as the expected life of the engine. However, many people do not realize that it needs to be serviced just as an engine does.
10 to 14 days
As long as you properly maintain it
The only way to maintain a youthful for a long time is by undergoing anti ageing treatment.
go to a garage, u ain't gonna get this done on your drive!
change at least every 25,000 auto transmission oil does not last as long as manual gearbox oil, all to do with friction and heat in an auto box, pays to replace filter as well
As long as the laws in your country require you to.
