Project Elite LPG Passes is MOT
« on: 20 October 2007, 10:00:12 »

Don't know how but thank god its passed!!  :D

Its now legal for another 12 months, the gearbox however is not sounding good, worse than ever. So i need to change that ASAP...

Sitting on the driveway revving it away, it acutally sounded ok. 95% of the scary noises this car makes is from the box. The box is also giving a duff speed sensor reading, so the speedo and sensenative steering is not working  :o

Anyone fancy helping me change the gearbox??

It's a pain in the arse (and hands) of a job. Well, it was for me as my hands aren't small.

Yes, but its only used by the auto box ecu....speedo signal comes from the ABS where the sensors are post diff.
