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.
usually low oil
In Nissan Sunny (and some other cars too), overdrive is ON when the button is DEPRESSED and there's NO LIGHT in the dashboard. The automatic transmission will utilise all the 4 forward gears (the 4th gear being the overdrive that helps in fuel economy -- similar to 5th gear in a manual gearbox). This is the recommended setting for normal driving. When the button is NOT DEPRESSED, you turn OFF overdrive, and the indicator LIGHTS UP in the dashboard. In this mode, the automatic transmission will NOT shift into 4th gear.
No, since it's indicating a malfunction and by driving it you may be damaging it further.
how much oil is usedinan automatic gearbox for a toyota vitz 1000cc
for starters....is it manual or automatic,,,,big difference......on a manual,,,you have to get under the car to to the gearbox,,,,,then find the gearbox plug bolt,,,then fill the gearbox to that level....automatic is very different
automatic transmission
You should change your automatic transmission fluid in Toyota gearbox at least after every 30,000 miles.
You can check the automatic gearbox oil on a 1993 Ford Laser 1.5 using the oil stick.
1. It is called TIPtronic gearbox. 2. It is a combination between semi-automatic and automatic gearbox. 3. You have an option to change the gears with a lever on the steering wheel or with the gear lever (like semi-automatic gearbox) 4.It is called tiptronic, because you pull or push the tip of the lever in order to change gear
You cannot check oil levels in automatic gear box as it is a sealed unit. I took my car to automatic gearbox garage and they changed the oil and resealed the gearbox for a very reasonable cost. Remember the gear oil itself is very expensive.

Automatic and Manual gearboxes are essentially the same, except that the driver does the shifting for a manual gearbox(my personal preference), and a computer shifts for an automatic gearbox.
