question cvrt gearbox

[xtreme]

On a normal auto gear box you check oil level while vehicle is running after running through the gears .

 

Is this also the case for CVRT gearbox

 

thanks

I've only got the Shielder manual, but that says gearbox warm, engine stopped, wait a few minutes for the oil to settle.

Always check the gearbox oil when the vehicle is static and engine off. When I was a Tp Sgt. I was really anal about my drivers doing all their checks. One of them was talking to his mate and said, "If we are at a set of traffic lights for more than 1 min., Bazz makes us do a oil level check", his mate actually believed it.

you have me in stitches, the lack of proper "first parading" has to be my biggest irk! In know our collection gets looked upon as a Hertz rental fleet, ie jump in and thrash it! It is the operator / drivers duty in civvy or military usage.

 

yes, flat and static is best

Our QM(T) in Tidworth used to walk around the tankpark just after start of work. If he saw a veh moving he used to stop it and make the dvr and cmdr complete a first parade in front of him, he did this to make sure one had been done prior to first moving the veh. If there was a fault found he reported this to the appropriate Sqn HQ.
