just been looking over mine this morning, waiting for the trans oil temp to raise for a proper level check, horrible ratting/grinding sound around the torque converter area while idling
Well, about 2L of oil to much in the trans. Still faulting on the gear changes. Whine I thought had gone, but once the oil hit 59 deg it returned. When in park and the engine is reved I can here it, with the use of a screwdriver to listen, no noise from the alternator, however I can here the whine from the back of the engine and at the front of the trans. Im not feeling very hopeful of the trans being ok
Torque converter or pump is my guess shane :(Quote:

HTH,

I had a chat to zf over the phone. Rebuild cost in Sydney was $4250.

That there is, and they send the boxes to Sydney for rebuilds as they apparently don't have the time to do them. Looking like I'm going to have to get the D3 down to perth for it either wayQuote:
