not exactly sure what you are trying to undo, but what is wrong with filling it through the filler tube under the bonnet.

Hi Robbo, you don't say what year/model/engine/gearbox you are working on?

WOOP!

all sorted - i forget what a great tool a good pair of mole grips can be - then got the last replacement bit in the shop...

All done and working -

big thanks for the support

I think all the auto boxes ive come accross fillup through the dipstick tube

Robbo · Jun 13, 2010

Thats what i thought and was told too...

i will admit to the generaly male flaw of not being able to see anything infront of them.... but hell we couldn't find it - the Haynes (yes i should burn it) sort off suggested where it was... but looked and looked...

Anyway - all sorted now - happy days (as long as it get me back from Mansfield to Bromley)

D2's don't have a dip stick or tube, a silly idea but it cuts the cost even my Accord has a dipstick.
