Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I was told when they did that service that no one had changed the tranny fluid before (despite being in for 15k/30k services)!

I had the 60k mile service done recently, so I'm hoping the brake fluid check wasn't skipped...

Well, I'm not sure when they recommend it, exactly, but I figured that somewhere between 0 and the 56k or so it had on it at the time that someone would have changed it (it's been in for not just 15k and 30k, but a 45k as well, etc.) They may only recommend 90k, but trust me, the shifting feel was noticeably improved after I got it back..

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All, Two or three times now my brake fluid light has come on (and the PSM off light with it) as a result of going over speedbumps (usually 2-3, at least). Is this normal? It seems fine whenever I restart the car. I had the 60k mile service done recently, so I'm hoping the brake fluid check wasn't skipped... I was told when they did that service that no one had changed the tranny fluid before (despite being in for 15k/30k services)! Cheers, Justin

POST 2Original post

TRANNY FLUID DOESNT GET CHNAGED AT 15/30K. BRAKE FLUID LOW USUALY MEANS PADS ARE LOW AS WELL, YOU CANT TOP IT OFF BECAUSE WHEN YOU CHNAGE THE BADS YOU WILL HAVE A MESS IF YOU DONT REMOVBE THE EXTRA FIRST
