10 LösungenReplace Fuel Filter
Replace the fuel filter to ensure clean fuel is reaching the engine and sending unit.
Drain and Clean Fuel Tank
If fuel contamination is suspected, drain the fuel tank and clean out any sediment or debris.
Replace Instrument Cluster
If the fuel gauge is determined to be the faulty component, the entire instrument cluster may need to be replaced.
Test Fuel Gauge
Perform diagnostic tests on the instrument cluster to verify the functionality of the fuel gauge. This may involve applying known voltage signals.
Repair or Replace Wiring
Repair any damaged sections of the wiring or replace the affected harness if necessary.
Check Wiring Harness
Inspect the wiring harness connected to the fuel sending unit and the instrument cluster for any breaks, corrosion, or loose connections.
Replace Fuel Sending Unit
If the sending unit is found to be faulty, replace it with a new, compatible unit.
Inspect Fuel Sending Unit
Access the fuel tank and visually inspect the fuel sending unit for any signs of damage or corrosion. Test its resistance values.
Professional Fuel Injector Cleaning
Have the fuel injectors professionally cleaned and tested for optimal performance.
Use Fuel Injector Cleaner
Add a quality fuel injector cleaner to the fuel tank to help dissolve deposits.

Identifizierte Ursachen
Low or Contaminated Transmission Fluid
80%Insufficient or degraded transmission fluid can lead to poor lubrication, overheating, and a lack of hydraulic pressure needed for proper gear engagement. This is a common and often overlooked cause of slipping.
Worn Clutch Packs or Bands
75%Internal clutch packs or bands within the transmission are responsible for engaging different gears. Wear and tear on these components can prevent them from gripping properly, leading to slipping and delayed engagement.
Faulty Torque Converter
60%The torque converter transmits power from the engine to the transmission. Internal issues like worn stator vanes or fluid leaks within the converter can cause slipping and a feeling of lost power.
Transmission Control Module (TCM) or Solenoid Issues
50%The TCM controls the transmission's shifting based on various sensor inputs. Malfunctioning solenoids or a faulty TCM can lead to incorrect hydraulic pressure or timing, causing shifting problems and slipping.
