Oil level check (transmission, incl. converter)
Check the oil level daily with the engine at idling speed and the
oil temperature between 82 and 93°C.
Maintain the oil level at the FULL mark.
Changing the gearbox oil and filter
This should be carried out when the oil is at normal working tem-
perature (82–93°C).
1. Remove the gearbox drain plug and drain the oil.
2. Release the suction strainer, withdraw it and clean the strain-
er gauze. N.B. If metal particles are found in the strainer
gauze, investigate the reason before topping up with new oil.
3. Fit a new gasket to the suction strainer and fit the strainer.
4. Unscrew the filter bowl, remove the filter and fit a new filter
element.
5. Fit the new filter and tighten it.
6. Fit the drain plugs and tighten them.
7. Fill with oil to the MIN mark on the dipstick.
8. Start the engine and run it at 500–600 r/min until the oil has
reached working temperature, and the hoses, cooler and
torque converter have been filled with oil.
9. Keep the engine running at idling speed, check the oil level
and top up to the MAX mark on the dipstick.

IMPORTANT!
In the event of gearbox damage, always replace the oil
cooler – the damage may have been caused by the oil
cooler being faulty.
