    Hello and thanks. I have a leakage from the coupling between the pipes and the hose, in the transmission cooling circuit. The last distance to the cooler in the front is hose. Will it be leakage free with new hoses, or is it a known problem? Thank you.

    ATF oils

    Hello. Is it possible to fill ATF +4 in the 47RE? I think that +4 have replaced both +2 an +3. But +4 is syntetic and +2 was mineral? Or is both +2 and +4 available in minral and syntetic. I have also seen that +4 bottles is marked ATF U. Is U and +4 the same? Best regards.
