Would appreciate any help on 2 issues .
TS V6 AUTO, done 240 00 kilometres. First question: Using Castrol TQMST fluid and always do changes at 30-40 000km. For some time there has on rare occasions been harsh change down to first just as one comes to stop. This started out as happening only when cold. Now it is becoming more frequent and happens also when hot. Otherwise tranny works 100%. Any ideas is there an adjustment I can make?

Do all Magnas have PCV Valves? Came across a friends TR V6 that did not (we then put one in). I thought all cars have PCV Valves. I kinda understand what PCV valve does, but not 100% sure. Noticed 88 Pulsar and 87 Camira don't have PCV valve. My wife's '98 1600CC Pular has 2 lines from the Rocker cover to the intake (one before and one after throttle body) and neither one has PCV valve. If anyone knows about crankcase ventilation, please advise.
