I have been experimenting some issues with the atm for the past few weeks.
Usually it changes gear with out any issue but then all of a sudden it wont change from 1st to 2nd without me really releasing the throttle.
I took it to the dealer and they told me it was a code 63, solenoid valve.
what is bothering me about this is that usually solenoids fail or they are working ..... failing once in a while is strange to me.
someone told me to look at the earth connections to the engine and they are fine... I cleaned them up sins I was under there but no change.
I have had the fluid change on a regular basis, last time about 200km ago.
Some think this is an electrical issue but other a mechanical. A local garage that do a lot of atm tell me this is most likely a mechanical issue as the car has been driven jst under 300.000km.
Does anyone here have any experience with this issue ?
Refurbishing the atm is fairly expensive so I would like to look in to other possibilities before I take it to the atm specialist.
Kind Regards
