Had planned doing mine today ,but as kindly being assisted by a fellow OOF,r decided yesterday to postpone as unsure of weather today.

Just my luck it was the first fully dry day for a week or more so a job that could have been done is still pending.

Hopefully the next few weeks should see it sorted and hopefully new solenoids /fluid and filter should cure mine too.

intresting read intreqed to see the replys

Fingers crossed the replacement 2/3 solenoid does the trick...biggest problem is what needs doing to get at it.

Hi Noel.

Thought a man who wore such "posh socks " would have found no such problems.

Hope your well

What other symptoms would a damaged thrust washer produce ?

I have normal gear changes almost all of the time ,but every so aften it "hangs onto 2nd " then gives a firm jolt when it engages 3rd.Sometimes does the exact same thing going down the gears.

Will a Tech 2 confirm the solenoid is at fault.

Yep
