Title: open to examination....
Post by: bluebuss on 10 August 2010, 09:45:41

ok.. bless me with info please.....
first, do i need to change the auto box computer from the ar25 to a computer for an ar35 or are they the same.....
second, have stripped the ar35 box into three sections to inspect and found little wear.
how do i test the little solenoids inside the box?
the washers and bearings are in good order,have found some wear on second and third on the drums where the plates have been pressed hard into them.

the symtoms are. box goes imediatly into limp mode from startup every time.
when you change manually from first to second it shudders and will jump out of gear then it will run and then shudder..

have checked oil levels, checked the exterior plugs and the selector switch, the box is pretty dry on the outside apart from the joint behind the selector. :o :-[

I know you say you have checked the levels, but did you do it with the car level, engine running etc?

I asume you have read this:-

Sorry mate, that's me out of ideas. There are some gearbox experts on here, I am sure you will get an answer soon.
Good luck.
