Hi i have asked a few people but not had any luck, anyone know how to top up the fluid on a auto box on a 1999 gt3200?? I have replaced a leaking pipe fromthe box to the cooler, got the correct type of oil but no idea how top to it up or check the level Thanks Ed

Hehe hows it going phil? tried to pop in and see you last weekend but you were not in the unit?

 

[Phil747]

Hey Bud, last weekend? i cant remember what i did last night, been to Germany again but was knocking about last weekend im sure. should of called, any luck with the MCP?

Anyway, cant find anywhere any reference to where the filler plug is on an auto box, the attaced pic is from a manual box, but i would assume they would look the same, just look for a bolt with oil around it lol, if in doubt give an indy a call in the morning they will know, hope ive been some help

 

[rhys3200]

No luck on the MCP yet, loads of stuff will be going up for sale in the next week or so including all the stuff from nihad too if your interested? got some a320 stuff so going to use that then for a while.

Yeah came round to the unit but all locked up and straight to voicemail on the phone, il be in up in southport again in a couple of weeks. Surprised you didnt pop down to the stafford meet on sunday?

 

[Phil747]

Pah! Airbus, saying that did u look at the 320 on my PB account, thats stuff from Nihad, hmmm, rudder one defo, but the credit card being test driven by autoshield in manc soon, soo tempted by the MCP but i miss the massa too much, got my hands on a T7 landing gear assembly so messing with that at the moment

Wot day did u pop down?

***side note***

Apologies to all sportsmaserati members who probably have no idea what we are wittering on about

 

[rhys3200]

Hehe yeah sorry all me and phil are just having a catch-up!

T7 unit sounds good! still got an old 777 mip here too lol! Yeah did see the stuff on your pics looks stunning! The reserve on the MCP is quite low actually considering what it is... i should really hold out for more but if it doesnt sell il do you a deal

Il give you a call tomorrow save using the forum lol!

 

[Phil747]

no probs bud,

Ohh Ed let us know how you get on

 

[Emtee]

Wow, that was surreal!

 

[Pibbow]

WTF....................... am I missing!

 

[FLORADAEDD]

Thanks for the help, i have asked all the so called Maserati Specialists and none of them could help, (or wanted to!!!). The timing pick up should arrive tomorrow so hopefully i will fit it start it up and then check the level in the box, Thanks again for all your help, advise and good wishes, its a fantastic Forum and full of helpfull people, Thanks again Ed

 

[FLORADAEDD]

The timing pick up arrived fitted it (a bit of a fiddley job) put all bits back, turned the key and !!!!!! IS STARTED, sounds fantastic good oil pressure. I left it running for a while and the fans cut in, heaters warm, battery charging & no leaks. I will change the oil & filter tomorrow. I go on holiday on Sat so when i get back i will M.O.T. & tax it and then enjoy it. No doubt there will be a few little hicups along the way but thats what it is all about. Its the first time in my life that i have not wanted to go on holiday, i would rather stay at home and work on the car. Thanks again for all the help and support i have received from the Forum, Thanks Ed.
