Yes there is some jerking when the gear slip to the 3rd gear. I wonder if you know where I can get that solenoid valve and the cost of it if possible? As for the atf, i just changed it and only around 7k has passed since then, do i need to change it again? and do anyone know the place where I can flush the GB and the cost of it if possible? Btw, I live in KL and commute to Tangkak,weekly and JB once a month, any workshop recommended in these 3 places?
Tengkiu...
If u are using the specified atf then it is fine.
On the solenoid valve,try asking large spare part shop.
Most of the time they wont hav it in stock but can order it for u.
Price if not mistaken around RM280-RM350.
Dont trust if mech said the gearbox is kong as the DPO gb is very tough if maintained it properly.
However u did mention it is fine for 1-2 month after u change the atf.
U might want to consider flushing the atf 1st as solenoid valve problem are there to stay and dont come and go as it like.
On recomended workshop i dunno about kl but in JB u can try ask abg splitfire,kohf1drive,or arazakmy.
Splitfire......where are u.....someone need your help here.
