Thank you very much for this video! I was looking for the right automatic transmission fluid replace procedure. But I have a single question: what must I do to raise the automatic fluid temperature (to 85-95), because in normal driving, it reaches only 60-70 degrees.
to raise the transmission fluid temperature, leave the car idling for 30 minutes or more and keep on temperature level, it will raise slowly when the car only idling and not running
This is kind of complicated I drive vouxhall Insignia with automatic transmission and after watching this video I think I might need to change my car,s gear oil.
no other procedure is possible on these transmissions.. also the filter is not servicable withouth disassembling he unit.. so change part of the fuel more often is the only way to go
bobl78 My mechanic, with special in automatics, did a flush on mine and changed all 10 liters, so it is possible, but you need a special setup and machine to do it.
It says with the probe but it is recommended to use the OBD scanner to check if your car can check with the internal transmission temperature sensor. The probe is okay especially the laser temperature sensor if you have one on hand.
If want a full flush you can use the cooler lines. On an Opel Vectra with the AF-40 box. WARNING: I'm not responsible for any damage done to you, your box or your engine using this guide. Use with caution and care. Raise the car. Remove the gearbox to engine mounting/support to get to the cooler lines. Disconnect the cooler lines from the box (the cooler lines are the hoses going to the radiator.). You have 2 options: Air compressor filling or Gravity filling. Air compressor method (modify as you like. This is just so you get the idea): Get a 8L container with cap and pour all your ATF into it. Drill a 12mm hole into the cap of the container and insert a 12mm hose into the cap. This other end of the hose will go into the upper cooler line hole on the box. Drill a small hole into the same container to be used to push air into the container and push oil into the box. Insert a 12mm hose into the lower hole and use a 2L bottle to receive the used oil coming out of the box. Now start the car and do it by step of 2 liters: when the box pump gets 2 liters out stop the engine and run the compressor to put 2L into the box. ou can do it with a 1L step if you want. When you see ne oil coming out you're done. Just make sure you put the same amount you got out. You can blow air through the radiator lines to get out the used oil still in the radiator. Add the amount you got out of the radiator to the box. Reconnect the cooler lines to the box. You can check the level to make sure. Gravity fill: Get a 8L measure graduated bucket and pour all your ATF into it. Drill a 12mm hole and add a plastic faucet valve so you can control the flow. Put this bucket above the gearbox level so oil will flow down with gravity. Connect a 12mm hose to this valve and insert it into the upper hole on the box. keep valve closed for the moment. Get another 8L measure graduated bucket. Insert another 12mm hose into the lower hole on the box and direct it into this bucket. When ready open the valve on the upper bucket and start the engine. Monitor the oil level in the two buckets. If level on the lower bucket is speeding up stop the engine and let the upper bucket level catch up with the lower one. When you see ne oil coming out you're done. Just make sure you put the same amount you got out. You can blow air through the radiator lines to get out the used oil still in the radiator. Add the amount you got out of the radiator to the box. Reconnect the cooler lines to the box. You can check the level to make sure. If you have poured in the same amount you got out your level should be ok.
This is may NOT be the correct ATF change procedure for the Opel Insignia / Vauxhall Insignia (1st generation 2009 to 2016) The first generation insignia at some point had a automatic transmission design change (af40-6 aka TF80SC)
