Title: Automatic Gearbox - slipping?
Post by: Dangerous Dan on 28 March 2008, 13:17:12
Hi Guys,

I've just brought my very first Omega so I'd just like to say Hi!

Also, got a small problem with the autobox - when in drive it feels like the clutch is slipping in the first few gears however if i slide the knob down to 1/2/3 it's fine. Someone at work mentioned something about the torque convertor? anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Thanks for any advice.
Dan

First thing you really need to do is get under the car and check the oil level.  then we can go from there, :)


Hi and welcome to you.
