Hi everyone,

I bought this car about a month ago and from the first day I started hearing a squeal when going from 3rd to 4th. A couple of weeks ago things started getting worst, in the sense that the gearbox was revving more before going into 3rd, 4th... Finally, one day my wife came home and there was smoke coming from the engine area (engine was okay). Only then I realized there was a big patch of transmission oil where I parked the car.

Long story short, could anyone advise me what oil to buy and how to top it up? I'd like to do that before driving it to a garage.

Thanks

That sounds quite terminal, I would personally get it transported on a lorry (AA, RAC, etc) to your garage rather than drive it
