Hello, i have just finished to put back my cvt gearbox. But when i start the engine the oil get out of it by the overfull. I don’t understand.

Excellent video! I had to replace my R50's cvt axles which caused a lot of fluid loss. Added a bit of oil through the correction port but now the mini wont even start for me to go through the leveling process, but rather it shows the EML had turned on. What would your diagnosis process walkthrough?

Hi; should the wheels move with the brake calliper removed just the same? I have a CVT mini and cant work out if the CVT is dead or not, the wheels dont move with the disks/callipers removed.

Many thanks Reason I ask is that I wanted to add an additive to the cvt fluid. Something called oil extreme concentrate which seems to help the viscosity of the fluid and help gear changes. I just didn't want to overfill the transmission so wanted to be able to check by opening the bottom valve and observe the drips.

Thanks for the video Angelfiggi! Having worked thru the previous parts in this video set I got as far as adding fluid. At around 4 quarts the fluid started pouring out of the driveshaft socket which had no driveshaft in at the time. Does any one have any ideas what I have done wrong?
@AngelGarage Жыл бұрын
Install the driveshaft. There is a plug on the bottom, remove the plug and add oil until oil comes out the plug. Turn the car on go thru the gears and check it again. That's what I did
@njckberry Жыл бұрын
Thanks for replying! I did wonder about that, as it was only about half a cup of fluid not all of it :). I drained the fluid out before removing the drive shafts and that was like 12 months ago so it's a bit vague... thanks again for the great tutorial!

Hi there thanks for the video. I'm repairing a mini with some damage to the suspension and also needed to replace cv joints, I figure I needed to up the transmission fluid after loosing some with the drive shaft replacement. So I added some following your video, but after I thought it would have been better to replace it. But anyway, I put two littles that I thought would be sufficient. I drove the car today for first time and it looked too slow for the expectations really, did I damage something you think? It is also leaking what appears to be power steering fluid from the steering rack that I guess it was either damaged on the collision or before. I appreciate your feedback. I took on doing this project as my son loved this car when we saw it as an opportunity to learn something new! Best regards!
@AngelGarage6 жыл бұрын
Fabio Alberto Granados Mendoza I did find out that the power steering motor has a recall and the dealer replaced it for free. I don't know if that helps but it's a way to go. The other thing is to take it to the dealer and let them do an adaptation to the tranny that might help to.

Great video. A few questions however: 1) you said you have to go through the gears before opening the bottom valve on the transmission body, do you literally mean just going through from P to D? 2) what temperature do you have to get the car up to before you test the level from the bottom valve? 3) in the video it shows only a few drops coming out from the bottom valve and you said that you needed to put more in. Once you topped up the fluid, what happened when you opened the bottom valve? Ie what kind of flow of fluid should we see when the fluid is at the correct level Thanks
@AngelGarage6 жыл бұрын
I went from park to reverse to neutral drive and back and forth. I let the transmission get to about 150 degrees before opening the the bottom plug. I added another half bottle while the car was warm and quite a bit came out but not as much as I put in and I waited until it was a few drops coming out and I replugged it. The car drive fine I haven't had an issue yet. Thanks for watching and subscribe.
@alineriman59236 жыл бұрын
Great thanks for the information. So if I want to check that the mechanics have put the correct amount in the gear box I just have to open the bottom plug when the car is warm and check for a slow drip? Do you know where the cvt transmission control unit is located? It's a black box made my Motorola. From your video it didn't seem to be on the transmission body. Thanks
@AngelGarage6 жыл бұрын
Ali Neriman I don't think you can check it that way. Unless you were adding the fluid yourself. I don't know where the box is. There are so many.
