ATF Colour
« on: November 20, 2006, 10:30:24 »
Doing a health check on this other Audi and I notice that the ATF thats in there is actually Yellow.

Doesnt smell burnt or anything, doesnt seem contaminated but has anyone ever run into yellow ATF?

I wouldnt be THAT suprised if its been contaminated with engine oil.
I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.

yes, snot is the colour that springs to mind. Discovered this afternon the innder sill is rotted so no longer really bothered :( Will swap the panels I need and pass it on for spares/repairs.

Would go nice on a rangie chassis..... :)
