:( oops box died today!! got no choice but to fit the Ar 35 tomorrow now!! :o

Died of What??? what was up with it?

td engine is capped by vauxhall via ecu to save the cheapo Ar 25 they wanted to fit to cut costs,esigned to take approx 250 of torque thru it, actually it was taking  well over a third more and lasted just 97 miles before it started slipping, then 436 miles later it couldnt take it anymore!!! box is now toasted and roasted!!!!

well it went reasonably well ::)but changing an autobox on your own is not an experience i would recommend!!! box appears to be lovely and smooth now, but the damned pietzo injector lead got caught under the inlet manifold somehow  and cut through it, removed inlet again to repair the lead but im knackerd and couldnt hold the doldering iron steady enough!!!! so the engine had no power and a great big warning light on the dash :-?  but the box didnt slip!!! so am happy sort of!!! :y
