2ltr Petrol Auto, 6th months MoT...Zero rust...a few scrapes and a wing is dented. Auto Box reportedly "slips into neutral", well it didn't on the drive home

It really does drive very well indeed.

Excellent

Good to see Alasdair...

I take it it is a 3x drain and fill method Jim ?

Do you know the amount I will need to do the job in total ?

Unread post by **CitroJim** » 29 Dec 2016, 17:37

Yes it is a 3 times in fairly fast succession job...

A couple of gallons should do it I reckon...

Remember it must be DEX II mineral ATF and not anything that claims to be compatible...

Anything else should be named "bugritup fluid"

That looks OK Alasdair...

If that's part number 0175 then it'll be good..

Else, try this Comma one as that can be very reasonably priced too..

It's got dear.. last time I bought some, when I had an XM, it was dirt-cheap...

reports have it a certain make of truck uses it, and up the road is a truck mechanic who "happens to have" 12ltrs in his workshop.

How much driving does it need between drains ?
