Hi guys
The old mans AU III Falcon ute tranny is slipping. It only slips when cold, from gear changes 2-3. After the tranny warms up a little, there is no transmission slip. The tranny shifts pretty damn smooth after it's warmed up. My main concern is that in the 300000km+ he's covered in the ute (bought new off the showroom floor), he has NEVER done a transmission service. Would it be safe to do a service (drop pan, replace filter and refill with new oil)? Or would it be best just to leave it until it dies? He has already resigned himself to a rebuild/replacement unit; I was hoping to spend a little cash in order to prolong the life of the tranny. Any thought on the matter appreciated. |
