2010 was the year got my 2nd hand lovelife 99 gli a/t at 112thou km . After 13yrs, reverse started acting up, problem was it took 10min to engage the reverse from a cold start. After that no problem with the tranny.
After 15 years problem is still here, no amount of flushing cured it and im still coping with the tranny since it only happens on cold starts.
I got a new vios 1.5 a/t. Its indicated in the manual that under normal condition, fluid does not need to be change.
