Re:SZ5 Jimny automatic transmission fluid.

Hi Gadget.

Thanks for your posting.

Is the downloadable manual for the 2019 Jimny?

Suzuki are pretty vague with their model naming system.

I had a look at mine and found what must be the gearbox filler & dipstick, on the right hand side as you sit in the car.




You need special suzuki hands to reach it, or the engine will have to come out first, so I can't pull it out to find out what is attached to the bung.

Great'

I am going to look.

Yes there it is!

Why can't we trust the dealers, you spend £2,000 and thet can't be straight with you?

Thank you for your help.

They probably don't know. They sell cars, they don't have to know what makes them go

To be fair, most "modern" cars do have gearboxes & final drives that are "sealed for life"- "for life" means "until they fail for want of oil outside the warranty"

My new Guzzi doesn't have a level plug on the gearbox like the old one, when you pay for a service, they drop the oil out, and are supposed to inject just the right amount in by volume. If any leaks out you are stuffed. (You aren't supposed to touch anything yourself)

Yes, it's for the Gen4 - stick your VIN into the Suzuki site and that's the manual it provides.

Hi Gadget.

Thanks for that.

Is there any way to search for text anywhere in the PDF file?
