• When the temperature reaches 60 °C +/- 1, open the level check plug.
• If no oil flows out, or if the quantity collected is less than 0.1 litre: stop the engine, add 0.5 litre, allow the automatic gearbox to cool to 50 °C, then repeat the following steps.
• Start the engine and let it idle.
• Connect the diagnostic tool ("CLIP").
• Communicate with the automatic gearbox control module.
