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

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
