Well I have another one then !

[Stickyfinger]

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.

Methinks Alasdair is trying to breed Xantias!

[Stickyfinger]

well 2 out of 3 are ####ed that is true

[CitroJim]

Excellent Good to see Alasdair...

Get that ATF changed and see how it goes then...

[Stickyfinger]

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 ?

[CitroJim]

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...

[Hell Razor5543]

Anything else should be named "bugritup fluid"

[CitroJim]

Anything else should be named "bugritup fluid"

[Stickyfinger]

[CitroJim]

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..

[Stickyfinger]

Comma @ wilco....£47 and change to deliver 10 ltrs

[CitroJim]

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

[Stickyfinger]

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 ?
