Hy everyone down under.I have Alfa Milano Gold 2.5 V6 with automatic gearbox and I would like to learn more about it.I was looking over the internet and I couldn't find anything about that gearbox on that particular car.I know it's a 3 speed gearbox made by ZF and I saw that a steering gear pump is pumping ATF oil from a big plastic can to a steering rack and to automatic gearbox.How much oil does it needs,where to check a level,on which interval to change ATF and all other thing I don't know and my final question for all of you is:"Is there anybody who has a workshop manual with automatic gearbox for 2.5 Milano"?

1.Steering gear pump is pumping ATF oil from a big plastic can to a steering rack and to self leveling system BUT NOT TO A AUTOMATIC GEARBOX.

2.Automatic gearbox has a two lines leading from the gearbox towards front of the car.Those lines are bringing oil from a automatic gearbox to a small cooler positioned just by the A/C cooler.This is for cooling the automatic gear box oil which is ATF DEXRON 2D.

3.JoeCab from AlfaBB wrote me this about amount of fluids in the automatic gearbox:

Capacities (From the Owner's Manual):

Power Steering/Self Leveling Suspension: 3.0 Liters

Automatic Transmission (total): 6.0 Liters

Automatic Transmission (amount for regular change): 1.5 Liters

4.ATF in automatic gearbox needs to be changed every 30 000 kilometers.

5.How to check oil is in the workshop manual which is located on this web page http://www.thesimp.org/workshopmanualmilano.html and the manual is the last one in the row and pages are 144 and 145.

6.I still don't have a workshop manual for automaic gearbox.
