OK those of you with a Disco TD5 Auto. Are your engines a rear sump? I have had to drop my sump to get at the torque converter bolts:mad:. Had me thinking why can't it be like a normal Auto with the removable cover plate.

Yes George,
The same, to get to the Torque Convertor bolts the sump comes off.

Drop sump to access convertor bolts?? What sump, engine or trans? We don't take any sump off to access the bolts. There is a little cover on the bottom of the bellhousing (round, 3 bolts) that when removed gives just enough room to remove / refit the bolts.

That access hole is :nazilock:. Spent 3 hours on sunday to loose the washers and one bolt in there. Droped the engine sump and all 3 done in under an hour:)

The joys of a hoist. All three bolts in takes about 15 minutes tops... :D
