Opel Signum 2.2 Dti 2003 Model: Automatic Transmission Oil Change at 250,000 Mileage

Hello, I have a question. I have an Opel signum 2.2 dti with automatic transmission. The car is from 2003. I would like to know what the situation with the oil change in the box looks like. The car has 250,000 mileage. I am asking for some advice and information. Regards PŻ

We replace every, about 60,000 km.

thanks very much only apparently there were two types of automatic boxes mounted.

The AF33 box (five-speed) was installed in your car. JWS ATF oil (the manufacturer does not matter), you will not change the oil filter built into the gearbox.

So change the oil normally? The mechanic said that when the old oil will be like tar, it is better not to change it because it can be worse than before the exchange. But previously the oil was changed like 52 thousand ago, it should also be ok.

Added after 2 [hours] 43 [minutes]:

Hello, I was at the oil change guy, he checked my oil and it turned out that, according to him, it is better not to change the oil because you can make bigos and changing it may be worse than not changing it. I saw what the oil looked like was black, but the consistency was not thick. The mechanic said he smelled a worn clutch. What should I do?? to replace or not to replace. I am asking for advice and help

It is replaced every 60,000km. Each oil changes its color under the influence of work, usually it darkens, which is a natural thing (your mechanic should know this. It seems to me that he does not know how to go about it and may outsource it to someone else)

I would think ...

If nothing is happening yet, then after the oil change "theoretically nothing should happen, but life verifies everything, so ..... change, but at your own risk .....
He'll start to jerk when shifting gears, well ... well ... life is brutal ...

Ok thanks very much. I hope the gearbox will run only safer for it so far. greetings

It seems to me that you need to change because the used oil does not provide good lubrication, and with such a crate it will not work well for a long time. greetings

I also bet on a replacement I once bought a Laguna 2 3.0 V6 in a machine and the Renault service claims that it is not replaced, the car was serviced from the beginning and it had 173 thousand km I went for an oil change, replaced I made 80 thousand km I sold the car to the very end it was OK the filter was not replaceable because it was mounted centrally and you would have to disassemble the boxes.

here, too, the filter is not replaceable, so it must be replaced thanks

Only an oil change without a filter, and as I wrote above, it was changed for the first time at 173,000 km
