Disco trans prob
hi guys new to the forum,one of my rovers just starting doing somthing very odd.seems when the truck gets warm the truck will shift fine but when u shut the truck off and then turn it back on when u shift into reverse it takes about 6 seconds before it engages.i work on rovers for a living but amnot a trans tech by anymeans i have my own shop in nj. it also does this in drive under the same scenario.the truck is a 2001 disco2 with 180000 miles on it runs great i would just like to avoid buying a new trans for it.thanx guys

What if the trans fluid had not been changed (maybe ever?) in 180k?
How did it look inside?
With new fluid & filter, I could see the crap circulating & wreaking havoc with the valving.
If it's shifting ok, I'd drive it as much as poss.
I'd also change the fluid again. (drain the pan)
It might start behaving & you're not out much by trying.
luck,greg

ok thanx mike i thought mabye i could mabye do a quick fix thought it might be somthing dumb that i missed or overlooked but i guess not i am going to try some lucas trans treatment and if that does not work my buddies dad owns a junkyard and said he had one with 60k for $500 guess ill just play it by ear and see what happens it does not do it consistent enough for me to slap a trans in it right away like i said only does it in warm weather when the truck warms up
