Astra AH is a old car.
Recall now???
Hi all.
I received a letter from Holden today advising that I have to bring the wife's car in to the dealership to check for and rectify a possible fault with the auto trans cooler.
Her car is a AH Astra CDX with auto trans obviously.
Any one else been getting these letters?
Has anyone had their auto box overheat and fail from this type of fault?
There must be a few otherwise why the recall.

yeah...weird!! AH first came out in 2004!!!!!!!
Bigkahoona's car might be a later version, or it could be an earlier model and the fault has only just been discovered...
It might even be some service dude at Holden HQ has just opened the email he got from Opel 4 years ago to see the TSB about the Auto trans - who knows???

holden were only notified about 6 weeks ago that this issue existed.............. i know my other half has been working on this recall for a few weeks now.
~~~decisions decisions...~~~
So..does the cooler leak or something??
The wifes Astra is a MY07.5 model, current shape.
The notice says that "a fault may exist in the vehicles automatic transmission cooling system within the radiator. If not addressed, it may cause internal transmission damage".
It goes on from there to say that my vehicle is in the effected range but not what the range is.
Recalls can happen at any time. Previously had one come out on a car I had that was 6 years old. Had to take it in and they fixed the issue no problems. Even got a loan car for the day which is rare nowdays.
