Checked the transfer case lever. Move it from high neutral low and back to high but still no luck.

Didnt check the fluid on the ground. Could it be low in fluid?

How many k's on the car? My D1 had the same symptoms (and 3hrs from home) and it turned out to be stripped splines in the torque convertor - but it does have 360,000 k's on it. Recon TC was under $200 - the big hassle is removing and re-installing the gearbox and transfer

Cheers

Its nearly 280000 km.

Went and check the car again as its about 30 minutes from my home.

Found atf on the ground on pasenger side close to radiator. Need to check the rave and see which pipe that off.

Anyone experience this problem? I think I saw a thread about losing transmission pipe somewhere lately on the forum. Thanks.

Have a read of this thread Gus...http://www.aulro.com/afvb/discovery-...ion-fluid.html
There are a few threads on this issue.
The hose/pipe splits or the swage blows of like mine did.
If it hasn't been run for to long with no fluid you may get away with it like I did.
I had my hoses repaired by a Enzed type outlet, others have fitted new hoses.
Fill the auto as per the book/rave(run it through the gears ect..).

Thanks Kyle.

Tow truck will bring the car home tommorow morning. Should have enough time to order the part and wish me luck

It will be your left side trans cooler line. Look down between the Air box and front left corner of the motor. More than likely the crimped joint has failed. If it is and you are going to replace it yourself you will need a modified ring or crows foot spanner, or a lot of patience with a 19mm open end spanner to get the fitting off the trans. Suggest you drop the front exhaust pipe off, it makes the job much easier. ( Read the Auto Trans Post a few below this one) Job is not that hard and suggest that you do a trans filter change at the same time and refill as suggested by Alien .

Thanks Harry.

Bought the parts for both LH and RH sides. I thought I do both while under. Do you think its a good thing to do?

But I forgot to order the oring. Do I need to replace them? Can I get the replacement from somewhere else like pirtek etc. it is just pirtek only 10 minutes drive from my place b
