How to access the transmission oil reservoir and top up the oil to remedy gear change problems on this semi auto gearbox.
Chris, this post is a godsend mate. I followed your steps (the bolts were a nightmare to get to), topped up the transmission oil and seemed fine on doing a few trial runs. Here’s hoping it stays in working order!
Just phoned to Fiat and got this oil:
Petronas Tutela CS Speed 75W 9.55550-SA1
Fully synthetic hydraulic fluid for the hydraulic controls of Selespeed and TCT gearboxes.
Hi, I'm facing the same issue with my fiat500 2015, I just want to check, has it works for your car?
@@Funtime-te1qp it worked for a year, later had to rebuild gearbox and change clutch too.
My mechanic said once oil been topped up, you have to code gearbox, but I haven’t done that.. only topped up 3 times, in which case had to rebuilt gearbox as one sensor broke.
@@kevinas88 thank you so much for sharing your experience.👍
Hi, Thank you for the awesome video. I'm facing the same issue with my fiat500 2015, but unfortunately it doesn't work for me. But I notice that when you start the car in the morning or after long brake (after the engine cool down or 1-2hrs brake) try to run the car on with some extra accceleration on 2&3 gears for 2 to 3 min (or 1-2km) to heat up the engine. Then the car never stopped on signals or when you slow down. It is working for me perfectly. You can check your engine temperature will always shows single bar when you start the car , after driving with some extra acceleration of 2-3min it will shows 4 bars(half), so it means your car engine is having enough engine heat. It works perfectly.
Brilliant video, saved me loads of time. Thanks a lot!
Bagus video teritorial, bermanfaat buat saya
Many thanks for this video, will have a look at the weekend, hopefully get it sorted !!
Sorted?
@@danielq5570 yes popped it to friends garage,who topped it up and is now running perfectly, thanks !!
Hi, I'm facing the same issue with my fiat500 2015, I just want to check, has it works for your car? If it works Please suggest to me what oil I need to use?
Just to clarify this is not gearbox oil top up it’s the actuator oil.
Very good mate .. I have punto evo .. my greetings to you.
Thanks for video. My reservoir was a similar level to yours, about two inches below minimum. Topped up it and road tested but it slipped into neutral while breaking. I may have another fault somewhere 😓
Well this is a good find ... the wife's 500 automatic has on several occasions stepped out of gear during downshifting into an unwanted NEUTRAL. Always when its somewhere awkward like at traffic lights or entry to a motorway junction! Sometimes the message pops up on display like 'check' or 'transmission' but maybe it means transmission fluid! My local garage told me it might the mechanical auto-selector box (2 1/2 grand!!) so I will tell them tomorrow to check the transmission fluid, at least top up or swap it out. Looking at your video I'm guessing for a mechanic with a ramp to access this fluid reservoir and top it up this is 1-2 hrs work max. I want to try fresh fluid before replacing the expensive mechanical stuff. I want a reliable situation then sell my car!
Very usefull vid. Thnx!
😜
Hey thanks for posting this vid. After topping it up - (level was about the same as yours) I now get a message check transmission see handbook. What does this mean and how do one get rid of it? Did you or anyone experience the same?
Well done Chris! I have a similar problem with my fiat 500, it goes into neutral.
I’ve discovered the transmission oil is leaking. So I may try to top it up and see what happens.
Could you tell me how did you top it up yourself?
I’ve located the tank but not sure how to open it for the top up. Should I look for a lid ?
Could you please advise ?
Thanks

Hi, did you fix yours?

Thanks for sharing
Hi Chris, I have problem with my Dualogic gearbox (FIAT 500 1.4 2010). My DUALOGIC does not work when outside temperature is 10°C or lower. I'm trying to put a D or R gear but I can't. I always have to wait app. 5 minutes to warm up the "robot" and only then I'm able to put gear. With colder outside temperature it's getting worse. Diagnostics shows only some classic errors, nothing important. Thanks for all advices! 😯 86 000 km. Transmission fluid has never been changed in this car. Do you think it could be the problem? Or what should I do? What is the process of changing this oil? I heard it's not easy because you have to take apart the whole Dualogic transmission to be able to change oil, is it true? Thank you for answer!
Flush your gearbox oil, fill with fresh
Hi Chris, my fiat dealer said to check this oil you need to open the drivers door so the pump kicks in and primes the tank (mine is a 05 panda) I've been told if you don't do this you can over fill it and cause leaks.?
Nice cut
Hi Chris, great video. Was it noisy (whining noise) when you opened the door and the pump primed ?
Not sure if you guys cares but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times then you can stream all the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Been watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown :)
@Dustin Corey Yea, I have been watching on instaflixxer for months myself =)
@Dustin Corey yup, I have been using InstaFlixxer for months myself :)
@Dustin Corey Definitely, I have been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :D
Will it make a nosie whilst steering left. It's starting to annoy me
My fiat loses oil from this reservoir occasionally. It actually 'barfs' about 100ml which then disables the robot. Any idea why it throws out the oil? It is not overfilled.... Is there a pressure relief channel somewhere that gets clogged??? Luckily it never happens while driving. Only when leaving the driveway...
Do you have to top up after the actuator pump has been activated ??
I ran into something with my 2015 fiat 500 and now it’s making this loud noise, comes from under and don’t have an idea what got demage??? Please help
Chris,
Great video, thanks. My daughter’s Fiat 500 dualogic had exactly the same problem. It jumped into neutral while driving (in very cold weather by the way) and she was stranded on the A3 for a few minutes. She then drove it home (all ok) and the next day to a garage (all ok) so this has only happened once. The garage is not a Fiat specialist or gearbox specialist. Fault codes are P2914-78, P2917-71, and P060A-79. They are quoting over £2000 to replace gearbox AND transmission control module. Did you have similar fault codes with yours? How long did it run ok for after you topped up the transmission oil? Thanks.
Hi Mike
My transmission module was leaking quite a lot so it worked for a few weeks then needed topping up again. I suppose it depends on the condition of the seals on the module. Search on ebay for Duologic transmission module. there is a guy who repairs them on there and its just a case of sending the unit to him along with its wiring loom and he replaces all of the seals and instrumentation on the module if its needed the cost was in the hundreds. I did this a few months after I posted this video and its been great. (I hope I haven't jinxed myself by saying this)🤐 my fiat has all sorts of faults turning up and I just switch it off and back on again and its fine.
Does this need a code after actuator fluid top up. Some say do ?? If so. Can MES multi ecu scan. Work ??
Hi
Mines goes to Neutral only when going to 5th gear... can that be the problem?
How many liter should i put on my automatic transmission fiat 500 s 2017
what kind of fluid shall I use for the hydraulic?
Also, what kind of fluid goes in the semi auto? ATF or 75w90?
Tutela Car CS Speed/Fiat 9.55550-SA1 .Usually its that stuff but ask a dealer imo
How can drain oil from tank ?
What type oil you use please send a image 😎✊
I have a problem with my 2008 Fiat 500 where it occasionally slips in to neutral, or stalls, or won’t go in to gear. Usually happens during heavy traffic & hot weather. Warning message on cluster says “insufficient engine oil pressure” Took it to Fiat who tell me the the ‘gear selector actuator’ needs replacing at a cost of AUD8000. Feeling frustrated and let down by Fiat in a car I absolutely love. Does anyone know of a possible alternative diagnosis and fix?
Hi there is an eBay link on the description on this video cost about £400 for the repair. I had mine done eventually been perfect ever since!!

What oil did you use ? thanks
👌👍
I have the same problem, but why only when it is cold?
jimded because, when oil is hot hes expanding and then its enought of him to gearbox work properly.
You cut your hand ☠️
I am concerned about this . My car is not moving. About 3 times a warning light came on whilst driving. Eventually the car would not move and it has been this way for a few weeks . I just located the area where I can add fluid. Should I go ahead and add transmission fluid or call in the Dealers / Garage ?
Hi how did u fix the problem? I m having the same issue bow
@@danielq5570 Listen to me. I rocked the car back back and forth, shifted the gear shift through the gears and tried turning the switch key. Eventually it just clicked and WOW ! It started and has driven quite well up to now except a few times when it did the same thing. However, it started aite quickly.
yes when this fault occurs, if you can physically roll the wheels with the engine off then flick the gear lever it will re-engage from neutral to a gear. @@asiba2
Excess oil in a Fiat 500 robotic system
Could this cause smoke in engine if this needs replacing
Hi it depends really. It is possible that the oil, being under pressure can vent onto the engine block or other hot component that will then smoke. Are you seeing any oil loss from your engine oil? is the smoke coming from the exhaust?
I have an issue with mine Engine oil loss and smoke. I don't know what to do.
what was thw oil specification you used
9.55550
what oil please , my car is stuck
@Firas Koshack thanks a lot
Tutela cs speed w75
transmission fluid it's measured when engine is running and with mopar dipstick 10323 measure the level, then the dipstick've got hot and cold level, then you decide what to do, how can you state that because the reservoir looks low you're going to add some? thanks god you're not gynecologist bro. Lol......secondly, transmission fluid doesn't evaporate if fluid it's low then you have a leak somewhere in the rainbow, and last, these transmissions are driven by a software that only your fiat dealerships can update.
Yes the seals had started to leak but I topped up and have only just had to have a repair. Fiat are NOT the only people who can fix this problem btw!
Chris Todd so eventually you did have to have the hydraulic shift actuator replaced? I am currently having similar problem with my 500L and trying to figure out how to get my car running again, I don’t want to replace this $1700 part if it is not necessary.
And how long after you did this did you have to replace the shift actuator?
