Ha ha. It's playing up...

I was reading your posts on the problems you were having....Thankfully I don't think the troubles are as bad...Got the results from my glyco test which were negative which was good news.....At the moment I'm looking to have an oil cooler fitted shortly plus have ATF and TC flush.....Hopefully this will cure the problems

Finally picked the car up last night after having the TC rebuilt and flushed and the valve body overhauled. They also replaced a solenoid and various seals...

On the 2hr drive home the car ran perfectly,no harsh gear changes and no loss of power under load:bannana:

All in all I'm over the moon.

Haven't changed the rad yet and was no need for an oil cooler as they said there were no problems with the cooling system...I will however change the rad in the near future.

A very relieved dredd

Why would you not replace the rad? Isn't that the cause of your problem?

I initially thought that was the case but no glyco contamination in the transmission. Will replace rad soon. No great rush as the cars parked on a friends drive until I can get it home..Due to three 6inch pipes running across my road pumping out flood water
