Thread: Discovery 300Tdi - Swap Manual for Auto

I'll take a few photos tomorrow night if I get home early enough. I got the transmission + the rest of the stuff from a Jag and Landrover wrecker in Acacia Ridge - he doesn't have anymore unfortunately and they are getting a bit scarce.

Regarding the electronic controls, I fitted 4L80E box into my XJ-S V12, I used a TCU unit from PCS, full programmable via a laptop and works on a whole range of transmissions right up to the latest ZF 6 speeds. I have no doubt you could make any electronically controlled tranny work with it. I've programmed mine even to have paddle shifts ( just have to find a nice paddle shifter) and I've programmed in two separate shift patterns, dyno mode which locks it in one gear, snow mode ( hich cancels first gear. the TCU costs $1500+ import taxes.

Don't know if you could make it fit but Toyota had a nice set of paddles on the Celica
