Transmission Fluid Level, Check and Correct (AF 13-II/AF 17/AF 20/AF 22)

Prior to fluid level check: Let engine run in idle for one minute with selector lever in "P" position. Shift selector lever once through all positions from "P" to "1" and then back again.

Caution

Prior to and during fluid level check, selector lever must be in "P" position with engine running.

Note:   Shake transmission fluid can (1) prior to use (as shown in pictogram (2)), to ensure mixture of the additives. If this is not observed, the fluid foams up during driving operation, which can lead to faults in the transmission.

Check and correct transmission fluid level (AF 13-II/AF 17):

  Measure

Measure transmission fluid temperature with TECH 2 – see Checking Procedure "AF 13-II/AF 17/AF 20/AF 22 Automatic 4-Speed Transmission Astra-G ". Charge transmission fluid to relevant upper mark.

For cold transmission (below + 35 °C ambient temperature, within one minute with engine idling) correct fluid level must lie between markings on the side of fluid dipstick showing "MIN + 20 °C".

For warm transmission (approx. 80 °C – after travelling distance of approx. 20 km) correct fluid level must lie between markings of fluid dipstick showing "MAX + 80 °C".

Check and correct transmission fluid level (AF 20/AF 22):

  Measure

Measure transmission fluid temperature with MKM-596-A or comparable fluid temperature gauge.

Charge transmission fluid to "MAX":

For cold transmission (below + 35 °C ambient temperature, within one minute with engine idling) correct fluid level must lie between "MIN" and "MAX" of fluid dipstick on the side showing "+ 20 °C".

For warm transmission (approx. 80 °C – after a travelling distance of approximately 20 km), correct fluid level must lie between "MIN" and "MAX" on fluid dipstick on the side showing "+ 80 °C".

Fluid quality, see section "Technical Data".
