Replying to: 3h1ax02 (Mar 06, 2009 8:13 pm) According to the Workshop manual for the 02 Axiom, the transmission oil filter is located in the main transmission pan, which is located on the bottom of the transmission. There is also a magnet in this pan, near the filter. The filter is an odd shape, designed to fit in the pan. To get to the filter, you have to drain the fluid, and remove the pan and gasket. The drain plug (screw) is the larger one in the middle of the bottom of the pan. The fill screw (actually called the overfill screw) is located nearby, adjacent to the drain plug (screw). Believe it or not, you FILL the transmission through this overfill screw, until fluid comes out the overfill screw. HOW you do that I do not know, but I assume you need a special tool or hand pump at a minimum. The manual says this: "Remove the transmission overfill screw (1) and fill transmission through overfill screw opening, using DEXRON)–III ATF. NOTE: Add transmission fluid until it flows out over the overfill screw opening. 5. Let engine idle until a fluid temperature between 32 deg C (90 deg F) and 57deg C (135deg F) is reached. 6. Add transmission fluid until it flows out over the overfill screw opening, then close the overfill screw." It leaves out the step where you wipe the transmission fluid out of your eyes, nose and mouth, after getting it all over you! It does include this handy note, about plug gaskets for BOTH screw plugs: "NOTE: To prevent fluid leaks, the overfill screw and oil drain screws gasket must be replaced each time these screws are removed." This is likely a dealer-supplied item, which should be purchased along with the filter and pan gasket. Hope that helps. |

My immobilizer light has come on twice in the past two months and when it does, my car starts but there is no acceleration. I also have noticed that my light on the key is getting dim. Do these two have any correlation?

Replying to: shamwow (Mar 14, 2009 8:40 pm) But, to your question, there is no such thing as an "Immobilizer light" on an Axiom, and in fact the word does not appear in the Service Manual anywhere. You must be referring to one of the other warning lights. If you can be more precise, Shamwow, I can look up the answer in the service manual and get back to you, but only if you promise to send me a full set of Shamwows for free (no just kidding). Back to you...

 My axiom needs the bank 1 &2 o2 sensors replaced. A mechanic quoted me $600-700.00 which seems steep to me considering the parts are 53.00 at an auto parts store. How difficult are these sensors to replace and where can I go to see a "how to" diagram online?
