Thank you Sassanach
« on: 25 September 2011, 20:52:14 »
Nipped down to deepest Wiltshire today, to the resident GM autobox expert, Sassanach.

In no time, the box was off the car, taken apart, and a 'new-ish' thrust washer popped in. Box popped back on, and cats refitted (V6, cats need to come off to drop the gearbox).

Lots learned, and I had a thoroughly enjoyable day - excluding the dimwits driving like Miss Daisy ;D

Thanks Sassanach :y

And you could have had mine and the nearly new auto oil pump and done it yourself at home in ten times the time....................

The biggest joke on mankind is that computers have started asking humans to prove that they aren’t a robot.

And I can't tell the difference that it's made. I guess that's a really good sign :y

I was able to push it harder on the way home, on the rare occasions that traffic allowed, and can report there were no surprises :y
