Hi I know I have asked this before. But all have told me Dex-III for my auto Trans is the one. But what I would like to know is what is the quantity required and have anyone done a flush themselves? If you have pointers would be good.

I have done it on my Mitsubishi Delica before after reading up on the net in regards to a D.I,Y auto transmission oil change in the Delica Forum.

Problem was on my delica it shudders when shifting from 2nd to third so drained the pan and top up it did nothing so did whatwas in the delica forum and it solved the issue and shifting was bloody smooth that you dun relly feel the shift but just the rev meter moving up or down when shifting.

So did the Flushing and all but cause i know the quantity iin the auto box. (Eg in the delica there's 8.9 liters in there so i drained the pan dry ( 2liters ) and pulg it back up top up 2 liters and unplug the cooler outlet that's going back to the box. Start and shift thru the gears while draining out from the cooler outlet 2 liters , top up, start shift thru drain, until i get about 9liters out. Thereby replacing the new oil to the torque converter and the whole system. (Basically that's what the auto flush machine do replacing new oil into the system while its draining out the old oil.)

So will this do for the R34 auto?

So anyone knows how much oil in the whole auto trans box? Or just replace whatever that comes out?? Or have anybody done the whole system oil replacement a different way then this before?

Please advise..Urgent buying the oils trying to get it done tomorrow with all the other oils, Engine, Auto and Diff.

Cheers

Daniel

    • There are black hose clamps as well if you care. Plazmaman for example sells some: https://plazmaman.com/product/black-hose-clamps-premium-quality-stainless-breeze/
    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
