Hi all,
Was driving VX ute yesterday when driving up i step hill all of a sudden it dropped back a gear and the revs went up to about 4500 then after that the whole car had a shakey feel the floor, pedals etc etc. I have a feeling it may be the tranny? It has just clocked over 280,000 and is due for a service. But have noticed the exhaust is making like a pop noise. I did put fuel in it about 30 mins before this happened. Was raining and alot of water on the ground possible that water had got into the servo fuel tanks?
I checked the tranny fluid and its pretty dark not the normal lite pink and doesn't have a sweet smell like my other cars. Not a full burnt smell to it but close.
Any ideas?
