I'm using a Proton Wira 1.5GL(A). I'm yet to service my auto transmission fluid. my mileage is 52K.

I would like to know about the AT dip stick. It has 3 part.

Cold, Hot and Adjust when is hot.

What is the meaning of all this 3 parts along the dip stick of the gearbox?

Please help.:_:

Cold is when the engine has been shut down for several hours and is in its ' cold ' state

Hot is when the engine is at its ' operating ' temperature which means driving the car for perhaps 10 mins .

Make sure the car is on a level road when checking your fluid level .

for 52k , I suggest you go and flush your ATF and replace with Proton ATF .

Cost is approx RM38 per ltr .

U should service the auto gearbox every 20,000 kms. Less if u always rev 6000-7000 RPMs daily. I service mine every 15000 kms using Castrol ATF. Good enough until my next gearbox rebuild project.

i did mine: machine flush ATF + refill proton ori ATF for a quite cheap price

Non-ori bulk barrel dexron 3 ATF : RM9 / litre (provide by mech, for machine "washing" auto box use, the cleaner d autobox, the less consumption of this fluid, i use a few litre only)

Ori Proton ATF : RM19/litre (for refill-up clean ATf fluid, i used 3 litre only) (bought fr spare part shop)

Ori proton ATF filter: RMXX (forgoten how much, but i think < rm40)

Labour : about rm50

Additional treatment : add in if u want (eg Lubegard rm50 per small bottle)

So cost wise < rm270 as u mentioned above
