COMPANY
Auto-Move, located in northern Oldemarkt, is the specialist in the region for the maintenance, repairs, overhauls, and preparation of Alfa Romeos, Fiats, and Lancias, both for road use and on the track. Additionally, almost all parts for all types of Alfa Romeo, Fiat, and Lancia can be obtained through Auto-Move.
CHALLANGE
With an Alfa Romeo 166 equipped with Sport-tronic, the transmission would always go into fault mode after a lap of racing.
SOLUTION
In 2009, Frank Kleijn visited Auto-Move Oldemarkt and suggested using SWEPCO 714 Hydraulic Transmission Fluid (ATF) for problematic gearboxes. This would allow them to practically experience that a high-quality lubricant provides more protection than the transmission oil previously used.
RESULTS
After using SWEPCO 714 Hydraulic Transmission Fluid, the fault occurred only after 4 laps, confirming the suspicion that there was likely more damage, but also proving that a high-quality lubricant brings improvements. Subsequently, they replaced the clutch plates and filled the system with SWEPCO 714 ATF, and since then, no further issues have occurred.
Auto-Move also uses SWEPCO 101 Moly Grease (non-melting grease) and SWEPCO 306 Supreme Formula Engine Oil.REMAKRS
“In recent years, we have had many ‘problem’ cars, including the Fiat Stilo Abarth’s Selespeed and the Alfa Romeo’s Selespeed and Sporttronic versions. With the use of SWEPCO 714 and our further knowledge in this area, this has proven to be a huge success!” – Mrs. Monique Koldewijn , Owner.
Auto-Move has been using SWEPCO lubricants since 2009.
