This is all based on what your Tacho is showing .... Find a way to check that your tacho is correct ....

thats where im at never really thought that the tacho could suddenly be out but still working but anyway im trying to find someone that can do it without charginf an arm and a leg

Neither could I ... But the problems that you are describing for such a simple job of repairing the Gbox are waaaaay off the charts on what has gone wrong


Surely a member is close to you for a "looksee" and a comparison test drive???

Can't believe that this issue hasn't been resolved yet .....

all 4x4 has test driven it and compared it to one of there and theres revs at 2500 which is why now the finger has been pointed at the tacho tried to get a few places to do a tacho test and written report no one wants a bar of it but im going to triggs on friday and he wants to take it for a test drive so ill see how i go with that short of that ive tried ringing zf au and have not had a call back yet so im stuck yet again

Keeping in mind, Diesels arn't my cup of tea .... If it was a petrol engine ... The mechanics just hook a lead wire to a spark lead and then presto they can tell what the revs are doing via their machine

Don't diesel mechanics have a Tacho gadget / tool, that can be hooked up to your motor to do the same ??? ... Then you can find out what your motor is actually doing (revs) .... in comparison to your tacho ....

You might try one of these didgital taco
I bought one to set the elect tacho on the fender
they are abt 30 odd bucks in fleebay
handy tool..............




Digital Tachometer

they would certanly have there place but in this case i need a written report to put to the consumer tribunal im jack of this guy he has my number and has made no attempt to ring me to say look i apolagise but lets get to the bottom of it they are jackasses last time i spoke to him was to tell him what all 4x4 said so we could get to the next step than he asked me to get all4x4 to ring him told him im not his secutary service there number is in the white pages maybe thats why he wont ring me
