when i put in tiptronic i have found that if i drive it as you would a manual car thats clutch has gone it seems better - so i change up when revs are dropping - this seems to go into gear without the clunk. does this sound like a gearbox issue or a clutch plate or similar as i have no idea how these autos work
Thanks

Do a search for Gibbons Method, I have found Millers Millermatic SP3 to be good value and meets JWS3309 spec. you can also get toyota T-IV fluid so I've been told but do check the bottle that it meets JWS3309.
The cheapest possible fluid is from Smith and Allan but the Miller specs are slightly better IMO.
