    It has become quite well-known that the oil needs to be changed at around 80,000 Kms. If the gbox is still in the vehicle and depending on the fault, it may be appropriate to change the oil and if there's a significant improvement, change the oil again. A significant quantity of old oil remains when drained.

    Hi Gordon,
    I would agree that having a transmission seize at 110,000km is rare. There is no recall available for the transmission. I believe there are Teechnical Service Bulletins for them - if the owner requests them. However these only change behaviour of changes, etc, rather than preventing it from seizing.
    Cheers,
    Rob

    That's what I assumed. Transmission case == transmission unit... and a case of holiday spelling.

    You have to read it a couple of times !
    Is "Transmission case" a Transmission or Gearbox , or is it a Tranfer case ?
    Does "ceased" mean stopped or seized ?
    I wonder what were the symptoms that lead to this event ? (whatever that was !)
    Perhaps it was the case of the sealed case,case ! Interesting !!

    transmission case

    MLR Sth Melb advised and undertook transmission case service and underpan replacement at my ~ 98,000 service. I had no problem at that time apart from occasional less-than-perfect gear changes. I presume they knew!

    Is it just senility setting in early in my case, or are posts just getting harder to understand

    Stewmair and gordon007: I think I can vaguely understand you, but it is so easy to misinterpret when your sentences don't make sense!

    Stewmair: What did the dealer know?? How do you service a transmission case???

    gordon007: ?????
