Selespeed strikes again

Use MES/AlfaOBD to depressurise and bleed the air out of the system, it is easier and cleaner.

Finally got around to replacing the accumulator. The 27 mm spanners that are readily available are all too thick, but local metal fabrications guys did a good job of thinning it. The rest of the work is quite straightforward.

And now it's all good! No errors, gear change fine, the pressure holds for 3-4 shifts. And EOL calibration completed successfully.

Wonderful!  Now you can fall in love with it again. 

How much fluid dribbled out the dead one?  Often they "rattle" due to having a lot of hydraulic oil on the wrong side of the (failed) membrane.

How much fluid dribbled out the dead one?

I am not too good at measuring fluid amounts when they're spilled on concrete. Yes, that's where the contents of the accumulator ended. But given that I had to top up the system with roughly 200ml of fluid, I believe that's about what had got into there.

While  you were there  did you check the clutch rod adjustment?

While  you were there  did you check the clutch rod adjustment?

I did that about three weeks ago when I figured that there was an issue with EOL calibration.

[bazzbazz]

Just so we are clear, clutch rod adjustment is NOT part of any Automated calibration, it is a mechanical adjustment of the clutch rod length.

[warsch]

Yes, certainly. I adjusted it with a spanner while watching its length in MES
