sir just my 2 cents, if you are just doing your regular PMS any suking gasoline station would do. change the ATF and gear oil every 10K km.

other than the ATF basically it is the same as a manual tranny.

though I would recommend speedyfix if you would want to have the entire vehicle checked.

oh, and it would be better to keep the OD (overdrive) on except when on steep uphill or downhill roads.

ako naman, DIY lang ako ng change oil ng ATF every 3 months pero yung 3-4 liters lang. sabi kasi hindi naman lahat ng oil nadradrain sa A/T, only a part of it. magpapachange oil ako ng buong tranny ke speedyfix pag dumating na yung pina-quote ko sa kanya

e di hihirapin mo makina mo! atleast the at is not obligated to go to the topmost gear--for power when up hill, engine brake naman pag downhill..

mnny,
if your car did not come with an owner's manual, the most common service interval is 20k miles or two years whichever comes first for regular duty, but for extreme duty like pulling trailer, excessive idling, stop and go traffic, extremely hot/cold climates, delivery service etc, the service interval is somewhat shorter. to reduce pollution, service only when necessary. check with oil compatiblity since wrong atf will definitely ruin your tranny. the universal ones now are dexron III/mercon IV. better yet check the dealer service department so as not to void the warranty. check the fluid regularly. to do this, perform on a generally level surface with the engine at idle, apply the parking brakes, apply the service brakes, shift from park-reverse-d3-d-2,1 at about two second intervals and place back to park, with the engine still idling, pull trans dipstick, wipe, reinsert and check the oil level. this should be between low and full with corresponding trans temperature. just make sure if you topoff, service or change the oil that it is the factory recommended atf

yumyum is correct

:bwahaha:

pero most likely mangyayri lang to pag mabilis takbo mo. siguro starting mga 60+ kph.

**alwayz_yummy** · February 26th, 2009 08:00 PM

pag galit ka sa enginebrake during downhill, dapat marunong ka mag-drifting like takumi!

hehehe

q,
the trans has o/d and it means of course it is electronic. the parameters for o/d operation are: the coolant temperature be between 190-240 degrees fahrenheit, throttle opening between 40-80 percent, vehicle speed above 35 mph (sorry, just convert to metric), the engine is not on limp mode and the o/d switch is in the on position. if the cooling system is overcooled, the o/d does not operate since it is one of the parameters that the engine coolant is within the normal operating temperature and not warming up or simulating cold engine operation.
