rsweeney 40 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 after everything being sorted out i drove the vr with its new automatic gearbox. drives fine in everything but reverse where it just slips . When the new gearbox came ( that i spent £400 on ) it had some clutch plate bits in the sump. At this time i contacted the seller who reassured me its fine and its been tested thoroughly . what do i do guys? this is so demoralising after the amount of my time and money that has gone towards it for new gearbox, chains guides tensioners, water pump, rad, thermo housing, crack pipe, driveshaft boots etc etc ...

rsweeney 40 Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 it was in january thaat i bought it so too late ...he blamed it on the transport that i payed for.i have the old box so im considering after speaking to a auto gbox mechanic to start taking pics and drawing diagrams for taking it apart. then when i get to the reverse bits ill see how hard it would be to replace. any views are welcome - this is on old vr6 auto box that has cracked down the side btw Link to post Share on other sites
