Title: Putting 3.0v6 gearbox into 2.5td omega/ar25-ar35
Post by: stevenpc on 28 February 2010, 20:52:55

hi i have a 2.5td with auto box which seems to be stuck in top gear,no fault codes on car so presumming changing is only option, i was thinking of looking for an ar35 box as have heard they are better just wondering will i need a control box aswell or are they compatable to the 2.5td electrics? thanks

Fully compatible to whats there....just swap the box and keep the original torque convertor
