Hi Folks,
finally got around to registering over here.
I was checking a few bits under the bonnet today and discovered some oil in the rad expansion bottle It's not much oil, but it wasn't there before. I dont think it's engine oil as it is clean and cream in colour but has got me thinking about the gearbox oil cooler in the rad. I haven't had a chance to check the ATF in the box yet but gears are shifting as normal. I know the 90's had issues with these and fitting a separate oil cooler was a common mod. Can this be done on the 120? I assume it can as the ATF pipes are easily accessable.
Has anyone changed the ATF in these boxes?
How do I check the level in the box?
Will fitting an oil cooler have any adverse effects?
What colour is this new type of ATF?
Lots of questions - me thinks I'm going on a steep(and expensive ) learning curve with this one !!
Cheers
Richard
