I am posting this for Geoffrey, in Malta. Hopefully, ya'll can advise him as to what to do.
Geoffreybusuttilmalta]Hi there.
I`m the guy from Malta,
when i got the car to malta from usa, i noticed that the transmission dip stick was showing signs of no oil. marked ..
So i bought 4.5 ltr automatic transmission oil and poured it in my gearbox. because as from what I understood on the user manual it takes 2 quarts .. which are about 10 ltrs
but today was reading the workshop book a friend sent me. and noticed theres a whole of a procedure to do that.. where all i did was poured the 4.5 ltr in 1 go...
eventually the dipstick is marking far more uppwards than the F mark with oil now.. and after driving it i found auto-transmission oil on the garage floor..
DO you think I overfilled it? and if so ... that may result in damage :s ... i feel really worried bout that now...
i tried to see where to drain it. and the pipe where connects to the bottom of the transmission is really difficult to loosen up... What should I do ... hope you can help me..
regards
