I have a Auto Sleeper Duetto with a 2006 transit ASM. I had trouble a week ago familiar to many posts on this problem, ie, engine would not start then would only start with tick over but no gear select or revs. Then all of a sudden it cleared its self and all systems working.
Managed to get a Ford Diagnostic check which showed,
1" low hydraulic oil level and
2" short clutch piston travel.
Now all faults have been cleared but I cannot find the correct hydraulic oil specification to top up.
I have tried local Ford dealers and searched on line without success.
I have found Shell Spirex S6AFTX and Castrol 75W 90 but not sure these are correct.
Any help will be much appreciated
He hasn't been back here since Jan of 2021, so your question will probably fall on deaf ears.
The ASM uses two oils, one for the gearbox itself and another for the hydraulic acuation system.
