Re: Judder, judder stall.

Like a diesel engine...too much oil is as bad (or even worse) as not enough. :shock:

I'd be tempted to extract some ATF to bring the level to MAX at the very least, ideally i'd change the fluid and clean/replace the filter.

Re: low temp protection screen wash

That's a good idea Dave :idea: I've only ever seen jets frozen, not the actual contents of the washer reservoir. (providing there's screenwash in of course) My car has the heated jets/windscreen/rear screen/mirrors etc... It's pleasing to see the huge defrosted orbs on the frozen bonnet surrounding ...
