Title: after the mig
Post by: raywilb on 05 April 2013, 17:09:14
because of the demise of my mig iv,e had to buy a cheap runaround, & ended up with a scenic. its  an auto g/box 1600cc job. engine wise on tickover its really quiet but in drive ,1st & 2nd there a noise. reverse is silent. automatics to me are alien. can anybody on here tell me what the problem may be. theres no g/box dipstick on these so I cannot check on the atf condition. :-\ :y the gears seem to be ok.

Scenic's can suffer with the right hand engine mount bottoming out on its mount pad,very common on the diesels but not seen it on a petrol one,just sounds harsh when accelerating but quiet on over run.
