Title: 1998 td auto
Post by: philglasgow on 27 April 2010, 09:52:49

Hi folks

For a while now if ive been town drivng stop start etc for maybe an hour or so , the box will not change from 2nd to third sometimes 3 to 4th, The fluid was topped up last year , if i select 3rd  then drive it will change up ok,  but im thinking its needing changed maybe , I was looking for a how to but couldnt see 1 here. Mileage says 144k but i know its done a fair bit more.

Any opinions please

a TD with 144k on the clock has likely worn out its ar25 gearbox, consider changing it to an stronger ar35  :y  (also opens up chipping options)
