Scheme 1205
Note. Filling oil: Start by filling with 5.5 liters of oil.
Use a converted five liter plastic can (see the illustration).
This method avoids oil spillage. It also provides a more regular flow when filling.
To check the oil level , see: Oil level, checking .
Note. After replacing the transmission, the transmission's adaption as well as the counter for "Transmission oil, change" shall be reset. Use VIDA Vehicle communication to reset the adaption and the counter.
