Starting to realise why people say the miggy is a never ending project
Took her for a longer drive earlier and I started to notice the auto box didn't seem to settle in gear, almost as if it kept changing its mind, is there something that can be changed to stop this happening or is it doomed to failure?
Most auto boxes benefit from a fluid change if the electrics are in order. So if the gear selector lights and all modes are engaging, then hopefully it's just a fluid related issue.
First thing to check is the fluid level as the guide in maintenance. If that is ok, then a full ATF change is the only real serviceable option. Unfortunately these are hoops auto owners need to jump through before finding out of there is a true fault with the box or not.
I try to service my auto's every 60k, which makes it over due at 127k and it's starting to show signs of slow gear engagement into reverse and drive.
