the ideal solution is to get back in your time machine and check the fluid level 5-10,000 km ago :)

if i sound like a smart arse then don't worry i've made the same mistake...

its the clutches which go... thats why it slips, it may just be that you filter is blocked and its causing it to slip as it cannot build up pressure... or its your front clutch... they tend to go first.

Options:
** Get tranny service and hope for the best its just the filter ($130)
** Rebuild (Full rebuild, stregthn + stage II shifty $1900)
** Buy reco'd (Fitted $700)
** get a 5speed (+2k)
