Hi all my first post so sorry if wrong. But I need help my 2004 Discovery 2A transmission jumps out of lockup on the highway it goes from about 2200 rpm at 100km and as soon as you touch accelerator or come across a rise it will swing up to about 3000 rpm. It has 345000km and unknown history (yeah I know) It runs fine around town. But it is only locking up when I drop the accelerator such that rpm drops from 3000 rpm to around 2000rpm. And then accelerate again with an egg shell under the boot(very softly) and any rise in road will drop out.
I have bought a Foxwell nt510 and there are no transmission fault codes, I have done filter, and 3 X fluid changes in 7000 to get it right and 2 tubes of Dr tranny's. It has improved things but hasn't changed this fault. I have reset adaptive valves but this issue remains. Monitoring solenoid valve 3 on foxwell goes from open to opening but never closed will check on mates disco 2 if same as mine over weekend as this might be chinglish issue.
When it drops of of lockup it is still showing on the computer as being in 4th gear is there someway the valve isnt engaging fully causing it to not lockup properly.
How do I tell or am I looking at a dying torque converter?
Has anyone else had this same issue help please!
