Hi Again, Following a Torque Converter Failure, JPan have reconditioned my unit, but when they rang, that informed me it failed due to water contamination. OK I did research & thought the Valeo rad problem. Its a W203, registered March 2003. I am 99% sure the oil lines from the box go up into the engine bay, & into part no. A6121880301, which appears to be a pig to get to. Cars had 3 owners, I bought at Auction, not exactly the best example, but I wanted it & bought it.
. Still driving my A4 at the moment.
Anyway, TQ & gearbox refitted, oil lines not yet connected, oil not yet poured in. I suspect the water may be a result of the vehicle being in a flood during the 2007 wet season, but I would appreciate any way of testing before I put it all back together again.
AND, when i got it, the cap was missing on the oil filler, so someone in the past has been concerned!
