3.1.3.1.9. Check of a condition of oil

THE GENERAL DATA

At check of level of oil in an automatic transmission also check up an oil condition. For simplification of check of a condition of oil compare colour, a smell and viscosity of oil to new oil.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. If oil in a transmission dark or nearly so black with жженым a smell, means, frictional overlays of a transmission are worn out.

2. If oil in a transmission has dairy colour, means, water has got to it. It can occur at constant operation of the car on short trips. If colour of oil does not change after a long trip, it is necessary to replace oil.

3. If oil has dark brown colour and sticky, it can be because of an overheat of a transmission or too high level of oil in a box. If replacement of oil does not give result, it is necessary to present the car to specialised workshop Opel.

4. If at check of level of oil or oil replacement at an automatic box in oil there are particles of a dirt or a metal shaving, it is necessary to make diagnostics or repair of an automatic transmission at specialised servicing deport Opel.
