  3. gearbox has a crack in it , after a few hours it gets stuck in one gear. sourced another gearbox and payed £400, it has the same crack plus debris in sump which turns oout to be clutch plate. very stuck on what to do

  13. you cant access the three bolts from the starter motor hole. basically theres a plate that the torque convertor attaches to, the three bolts that hold it to the plate are on the engine side of this plate. turn the engine over using a 27mm socket on the camshaft to reveal all three bolts.
