This means displaying the oil level in the transmission earlier.
The oil level should not be below bell (2) after a test drive and with an oil temperature of approx. 40°C (105°F).
The oil level should be between the mm. and max. marks with an oil temperature of about 80°C (175°F).
- Correct oil level, if necessary.
Note:
The new oil dipstick can be installed retroactively.
Oil Level Too High:
- Excessive foaming, splash loss, high temperature when driving fast and oil lost via the vent.
Oil Level Too Low:
- Valves rattling, foaming and engine slipping. Also general disturbences.
