    how to flush the whole automatic transmission clear and refill

    I used 4 tech, too in cambridge to do a gearbox flush. Re my L322 td6, approximately 5,000 miles back. Would def recommend the flush and new filter and fluid. Much smoother .

    Hawkeye V BBS FCR

    After loads of agonising over different diagnostics . Finally went for a hawkeye v5 for the l322 td6. Just needed the red adaptor . Main reasons were that it doesn't require a lap top to work and I felt my computer skills were not good enough for some of the other options. I really want it as a...

    Telephone preparation?

    Cheers for that, looks like parrot kits a winner ! The 3.5 mm jack sounds interesting as we are music obsessed and could use spotify in the car then.

    L322 td6 remap or chip for economy

    Ok, looks like adapting driving style a bit and looking round at re mapping options without increasing the torque. There seems to be divided opinion on the threads about flushing the gearbox and replacing the fluid . Or treating it as a sealed unit . Gearbox seems smooth at mo but don't want to...

    L322 td6 remap or chip for economy

    Thanks datatek, suppose being a woman I could do the drive like a nun routine! If I just remap for economy would that still put too much stress on the gearbox? Did all the 2002 td6 's come with the gm gearbox? When I bought the car in June it showed 18.7 on the trip, just got it up to 22mpg...
