With new ATF, I intend for the AR25 to last a bit of time, if driven sensibly..

[TheBoy]

The AR25 in my 2.5TD let go at 121k, 3 weeks after a fluid change.  Admittedly, the day it went, I was, err, "in a hurry"

[Martin_1962]

I think the AR35 rebuild would be a very good idea.
If it fixes the thrust washer problem we could build a stock of recon AR35s and flog them

If none of you has ever rebuilt an auto box let me tell you here and now its not easy!!! everthing must be cleaner than an operating theater and on this ar 35 it needs a few special tools and pullers not to mention settings!!!
although its possible its very long winded and finicky!!!

where in the uk can you get the rebuild kits?

[sassanach]

i must also point out that i agree with omegatoy here,cleanliness is everything but if one is methodical, i see no reason why it can,t be done.special tools i personally dont regard as a issue as when ive previously rebuilt gearboxs (auto as well as manual) i just make my own.(having access to a fully equipped engineering workshop is always a help)

They might well be cheaper for the filters to.
