Hi all

I have a semi auto abarth 2012 and have been having issues with it slipping out of gear into neutral. When the engine is turned off and on it’s fine. I have also been noticing quite sudden gear down shifts and revs are a bit high which sounds like low transmission oil. I’ve tried to locate the fluid level but can’t see how to get at it to check  - I’m assuming it’s below the battery but finding it is difficult. I’ve had a look here and can’t see anything..any specific advice for checking it would be great

Thanks
Stephen

Ok thanks - when you say mta needs a reset can you elaborate please?

Also when you say two oils assume this is one for the hydraulic (MTA) and one for the gearbox itself? but how are they accessed?

Thanks

You can access the gearbox and clutch operation via MES software and leads here https://www.gendan.co.uk/product_FESPKG.html

You can also download the software free but has limited use and make up your own leads.

Its a really useful tool and highly recommended.

Yes you are correct. There is a white plastic reservoir above the gearbox for the hydraulic operation. You'll also see a black sphere that holds system pressure.

Drain plug and level plug on bottom of gearbox to renew/check gearbox oil.

Still think a door maybe ajar so check interior light switch on door jams.
