HI mate if it's an AF23 i does have a dip stick but it is not obvious, look on the side of the box nearest the rad, the dip stick is green but may be hidden by filth, if memory serves me well it near the bell housing. Do a search in google images.

I tried to find a source of oil locally but found no-one knew what sort it was, hence i say go to the dealers for the oil. These boxes do suffer from coolant ingress but i think i am right in saying that it causes gearbox failure. I had the same thing with violent change, i don't know if it was...

Update: New fuse fitted, no difference. Had all the main plugs off at the doors and pillars, all okay. No warning lights, no codes stored. Rear speakers working fine.

Hi All, does anyone know anything about Meriva Central Locking, just bought one from auction and the central locking doesn't work. The LED on the remote key lights up when either the lock or unlock buttons are pressed and the indicators flash on the car but none of the door will lock or unlock...

Good idea to at least check ant-freeze as it's getting colder now.

Just to let you know, new stat, 5 litres of antifreeze = £13 job sorted :):finger:
