Summary
SOME VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE CONDENSATION FROM THE AIR CONDITIONING AND WATER FROM DEEP WADING CAN FLOW OVER THE TRANSMISSION AND COLLECT ON THE TRANSMISSION BREATHER TUBE. IT CAN THEN MIGRATE UP THE TRANSMISSION TUBE. OVER TIME THESE DROPLETS CAN CAUSE AN ACCUMULATION OF WATER IN THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH CONTAMINATION. THESE INCLUDE HARSH GEAR CHANGES, POOR GEAR SELECTION, GEAR SLIP OR LOSS OF DRIVE AND INTERMITTENT FAILURE OF THE PARK LOCK FUNCTION. *TT
