One minor issue, I have a TC light illuminated but no DTC's recorded?? Never had an issue with the light the first 2 times the car was driven but with it showing up, I'm a little wary. First time I noticed the light I turned the car on & off and it fixed it. Second time it was started it stayed off as well. Third time it came on & I drove it home. Thing is, I have this cheapy OBD2 recorder unit from ebay which is fantastic, I'd left it in the port & drove it. I'm wondering if that COULD have been the issue. Other thing is if there is some sort error code I'm not seeing ?To top that off can someone confirm the fill procedure for me? I was under the assumption that you;top it up till it runs out the hole > start > run through gears > top up till dripping again > once hot put in park & shut off > reapply plugHowever, when I did this as soon as the engine was off oil was PISSING out at quite a rate making me think I've over filled so is the procedure the following instead?top it up till it runs out the hole > start > run through gears > once hot put in park & shut off > reapply plugAny answers would be awesome, thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike the old 4 speeds.Secondly you dont check the level when hot. Its ment to be between 32-45 degrees roughly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
