    I have a suzuki esteem 2001. It changes to 4th gear at around the speed of 70 KPH. It is very late and the car makes to much noice since it is running at a low gear. Due to this reason the gas consumption is also very bad. Please help.

Trans is hunting for gear due to low oil pressure either pump is worn out or seals are leaking inside try trans x which you can buy at kragen or other auto store

98 Suzuki esteem no acceleration when putting in drive.
This could be an indication that you are either low on automatic transmission fluid or your transmission is slipping. Check your fluid level before driving it again. Continually driving with low (or bad burned fluid) will damage your transmission.

I don,t know how to check the gear oil in my 97 suzuki esteem manual transmission or how to add gear oil
The fill plug is on the left hand side of the diff casing just rearwards of where the left hand drive shaft exits the gearbox. You will need a 10mm square drive (a 3/8" ratchet is close, but you have to make sure it stays in the square) to undo it. The box should be filled to this level.

Dont drive it any further. You have possibly already don further damage. You are going to wash down the cylinder walls with fuel and cause bearing damage. Also dumping raw fuel into the exhaust will damage the catalytic converter.

Transmission
maybe check the owners manual an see if a filter is listed as a part number. call the local dealer. google the phase. best chance for a result might be to go to napa or autozone web page and search the part :) my daughter has a 96 esteem so i'll check her owners book and try to post here again , sorry, good luck. : )
