how to diagnos outback auto?
hi guys ,i have a 99 2.5 auto outback .. problem im having is mainly kickdown related ,eg ; i come to a hill doing say 70ks 2000rpm put foot down slightly ,car kicks into neutral ,revs biuld cause of slight ecceleration ,biulds to about 4 or 5 rpms then bangs so harshly into gear it churps the tyres ,,,if im quick enough and feel it about to change i release my foot off eccelerater pedal so it doesnt build revs on change ... it also sometimes nuetralizes on round abouts ,,,would seem to indicate low on fluid ,but its not ,fluid level is fine ....any ideas would be greatly appreciated ... thanks khanacross

How does the fluid look? is it pink or black? Crappy burnt fluid could do this.
There is no external adjustment for the brake bands and clutches, its all done by the computer. Has the 'AT Oil Temp' light or 'Power' light flashed at and stage? This could indicate an electrical fault.
