Importantly, Don't continue to drive it as any damage caused by continued use after a fault has been detected theoretically is your fault (At least that could be an angle for the repairer to try on you if they won't honour any warranty etc.)

he keeps telling me to keep driving it, but it will be going back to him today and ill be telling him to keep fixing it till its fixed, appreciate all the help by the way,

Contact the MTA in your state.

made some calls and seeing he is prepared to have a third go at it other than paying $40 to lodge a complaint that will be looked at there is not much else i can do so i spoke to him and he wont give me a car so we came to the agreement that they would drive to my work pick it up and drop it back off which leaves me satisfied as long as it is fixed

3rd attempt?!? WTF!

Dude, do you really want somebody working on your auto box who is either
A ) Careless
B )Incompetent

I don't know which is worse.

I am no lawyer but surely you have a leg to stand on to get the job done properly by somebody who knows what they are doing.

Don't let yourself get pressured into making a sub optimal decision based around lack of transport. You can get a set of wheels for $400 in the trading post to get you by for a couple of weeks

It's really unclear as to what the problem actually is. You said two hours and forty minutes ago it was working perfectly.

Was the transmission fully rebuilt (fully being the key word) or was it just the governor and failed clutch replaced?

Tell us exactly what the transmission is doing. What happens when you put it into drive and attempt to go somewhere?

I wonder what the affect on the A-clutch pack will be if over-revved?

Have a read here: Transmission Diagnosis & Repair

Try asking Dave (username Ashtrans on this forum) from Ashcrofts for a comment - Ashcrofts are well known in the LR transmission area. Maybe a PM?

..Or call ZF Australia. Think they in Arndell Park somewhere. Speak to one of the tech guys and they should be able to tell you what may be causing it.

Look up ZF Trading or ZF Australia in the Whitepages.
