my car is a 2001 V70T5 with a GearTronic slushbox.
it has done at least 300000miles.
20000miles ago i had the geartronic flushes and i am using JWS3309, brand: BG
as long as the ATF is reasonably cool it shifts OK but once the ATF is warm it starts flaring between 2nd and 3rd once 3rd engages it goes in with a bang..
shifting from N to R or from N to D sometimes also happens with a bang.
The hotter the ATF, the worse the shiftactions.
questions:
- what is the diagnosis of my geartronic? is it FUBAR?
- what if i replaced the ATF with a thicker ATF? (which brand/type would you recommend?)
