Hello everybody,

I am replacing transmission fluid on Disco 2 and I am buying Dexton IID as its written in Rave manual. There are two options: one is red fluid and another is yellow one. Does anybody know if the colour matters? and what are the differences between those two?

 

There are better fluid now being made since your manual came out.
Consider using Vavoline's high mileage Dextron for vehicles over 75,000 mile and put a bottle of Lucas tranny additive for a better/happier tranny.

 

IID is the WRONG trans fluid!!!
Dexron III is what it takes NOT Dexron IID.

 

Do not use the IID use dexron III with some additives will last for ever this way!

 

thank you for replies. i bought Valvoline MaxLife.

I replaced filter and gasket, then cleaned the oil pan and refilled, but i could pour only 5 Litres. After driving about 40 minutes, I went back and added around 300-400 grams and it was full. I still have left some oil, so will drive for a week and next weekend will check the level and will add some oil if it will need.

 

Always do the second fill/top off with the engine running with your tranny in park while on perfectly level ground.

 

do you measure with leaking tranny cooler lines or without?

 

Don't understand.
If the transmission coolant lines are leaking - you don't pass GO.
You need to replace those first...

 

What does that mean?

 

where is the best place to purchase transmission coolant lines?
