Hi Folks,
Grateful for location of auto transmission gearbox dipstick 16v dohc 1995. Car is dropping out of gear from time to time and I wonder whether this is a fluid condition or level problem. Incidentally is there a good diagram I can find on-line of the engine compartment showing the location of dipsticks etc?
 
Thanks for any advice

hi there
 
it's the BLACK dip stick you're looking for. it's on the left hand side of the engine, towards the bulkhead.

Hi it could be either of the things you have said or something else but oil level is the thing to start with.
 
When you check the oil the engine should be at normal temp and I believe the engine needs to be running or it will show there is more oil in there than there is.
