Autobox dipstick keeps popping out

(1/1)

auf_wiedersehen_pet:
Autobox dipstick keeps popping out - could the breather be blocked. If so, where is the breather?

beast5680:
they all do it , the dipstick is the breather so after a while it just gets pushed out slightly

SnakeLogic:
Yep, mine was doing that, and I was worried about water ingress, as I drive though a river to get to my off-roading spot.  So I did this:



Worked like a charm... until the tube that houses the dipstick broke off right at the bracket that holds it to the firewall.   :shock:  Had to order a whole new tube assembly, and with shipping from the UK, that worked out to about 150 British Pounds. :(  I don't know if it was pressure buildup or the vibrations on the extra weight at the end of the dipstick, but whatever the case was, I was pretty unhappy.

To its credit, at least the new one stays put!

muddyjames:
Mine doesnt ever pop out. I know there is a breather somewhere but I cant find it to put my breather pipes on.

RichardM:
Item 25 is the breather....or so it says on microcat
