Thread: Transmission

the rest of the transmission is ok though?

I would be interested too see how much the pump rebuild and TC replacement cost.

The guys in Melb supposedly have a stronger one available now.

Not overly happy with mine but i is better since a secondhand TC was put in.....


What were the symptoms? Any shuddering on lockup? or just hunting lockup?

You're in good hands Gazza, just let him do his thing

...Yes I send my 5L40E boxes all the way up there....

He did mine too - it's been going strong for years since.

There isn't much he doesn't know about these boxes and on how to make them last, but I feel your pain - I remember what it was like being told the same thing...

Sympathies and condolences good sir.

I'll ring him tomorrow arvo and see what the rest of the box is like.

He's trying to keep it around the 5g mark,but you never know with these boxes.
I know its in good hands tho..


cheers

If you need any internal components, I have most of 5L40E parts left from conversion.
The box in my 2003 was ex X5 BMW, and with only worn clutch plates.

Thanks for the offer Donrover.
If I need any I'll pm you.

cheers

Well I heard from Rhys today and he asked if I knew if the car had a chip or any other go faster system in it. Nooo I said.

When he took it down to his local landy spec to check on it before he pulled the transmission apart,he said that it went exceptionally good,apparently I've got one of the go faster models..
The bloke there did a check and couldnt find any go faster bits on it,so I'm stoked.
The pump will be done early next week as the bloke had a couple other jobs to do first.
So hopefully I'll have it back Thursday/Friday next week.
Cant wait,miss the beast already..

cheers
