mark277239 Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Hello, Older driver, newbie here. I know what a distributor and coil are. Anyway bought nice shiny 4 month old Juke 1.6 Connecta Auto (although it is the wife's really). Lifted the bonnet in front of the salesman, (who seemed amazed)and asked where the auto gear box oil dipstick was. Unless it is down the back somewhere, they appear not to fit one. Would I be correct?
Trevor Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Hi...welcome to the Forum Not entirely sure but a lot of other manufacturers remove the dipstick and either have a service dipstick which they dip the box and then put it back in their toolbox or otherwise its sealed and drained and refilled to the correct quantity. Shouldn't be an issue unless the transmission is losing fluid and you would notice that collecting on the undertray Good to have you onboard Cheers, Trevor
mark277239 Posted December 15, 2017 Author Posted December 15, 2017 Trevor Thanks. Ought not to be doing anything at the moment, but gauges and indicators just let you know what is going on under the bonnet. My neighbours Audi, does not have an oil dipstick, bad move trusting it to some sort of level device. Cheers for now.
Trevor Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 It's okay if nothing goes wrong but by the time the vehicle warns you, it's probably too late anyway
