Important ATF amount

99% of rubber materials in XH200 OPEL B-Vectra were already replaced when shock absorbers were changed after 150,000km use including frontal strut upper mounts, coil spring rubber supports, rack and pinion steering body supports and sway bar supports with linking arm's part ends.

The main engine mount existing posterior portion of AISHIN trans-axle with big volume of compensating of compliance for X20 motor torque.

As for shock absorbers, not Opel genuine parts but Monroe Reflex were invited instead, because of established reputation and their reasonable price, 10% stronger bumping effect design has better matching in compliance balance with softer Japanese tires and the generally slower traffic speed.

Thanks to these kind of fundamental measure on compliance, my B-Vectra the original riding performance almost exactly the same as 14 years ago when she was a June Bridal.

Body designing looks like an Old-fashioned, the taste of riding is completely new, nobody knows about this. No sign shows about this renewal procedure except a little bit higher body silhouette as a new automobile.

After pouring additional 1,2L D2 ATF, the AISHIN automatic trans-axle works well awfully.

Though the ATF level gauge is difficult to judge in JATCO automatic trans-axle equipped with BC7 SUBARU Legacy LSi US model, overflowing is apparent however concentrate to judge on level gauge I might be. 1 to 1,5 litter must be extracted from ATF oil pan.

Too much ATF must do harm to any mechanical constructive design and moving parts, on the other hand some lack of fluid may cause cavitation that's most inconvenient phenomena for oil pressure lines inside of the trans-axle construction.

Writing about SUBARU, E-BLE 3L Legacy now my son is using, the ATF level must be checked, there must be lack of ATF amount, because the checking had been performed with statistic condition under motor stopping?

Though we might not argue on the problem of the ATF level differences of only 1 to 1,5L, because that are within a safety tolerance enough, I dare keep and follow the decided oil level precisely as designed by the constructor's engineers, if some rough and sloppy amount adjusting may be acceptable, why the level gauge shows 2 conditioned drawing, cold and hot?
