Hi,good people.My nissan B15 cant move up a steep hill even when i put 1st gear.its automatic gearbox seems not to transfer power to the wheels.does any one know of a good mechanic who can sort me.thanks.

@Man,
Have you checked the ATF level?

@Mantosha,
Check oil level.......happens if your jinga fundi replenished your gearbox with oil while it was on neutral gear,thus isolating some compartments......The other thing is,you may have lost your gearbox and i doubt there are many mechanics who know how to repair or service planetary gearboxes.You may have to replace it,which would be cheaper in the long run.....just some opinion.

I strongly agree with impunity; our mechanics are seldom well equiped with modern technology to detect such problems nor do they have the requisite skills. Majority of them have not kept pace with the rapidly changing technology. As a result, they end up damaging rather than repairing.
Nevertheless, i recommend that you find a good mechanic who can diagnose the problem before incurring huge expenses.These good mechanics dont come cheap, but their service is reliable and can reduce the overall cost of maintenance.

the atf is fine.my local mechanic suspects the auto clutch is kaput.recommends that i save myself mental stress by simply buying a new gearbox.i just wanted more opinions .
