My transmission shudders at 80kmoh/2000rpm
Hi everyone, i have a S2, TD5 Disco,2001, auto trans. and recently did some reasonably heavy towing, 7 x 5hr trips to be precise, sitting on between 80-100clicks. Since the last & final trip i've noticed a very obvious 'shudder!' that im very confident is caused by the auto trans. Happens at about 80kmph/2000revs. I had the fluid level checked, needed 3 1/2litres! but the problem is still there. I've learnt to manage it right until it's repaired, i just drop back on acceleration/revs as i near the abovementioned range(s) but there's an obvious problem that need's attention and i'd like to get some advice before i visit the transmission specialist. What do you think? Cheers:)

First, get rid of the blue text, then read the top of this section where it says"NO QUESTIONS". Not sure why people can't read.
If you still have a question, post it in the Discovery 2 section. |
Thankyou
Well thankyou for the warm welcome. . That actually was my first ever forum post so i am deeply sorry that i did'nt get it absolutely spot on.
I was expecting a bit more 'spirit' than expressed in your 'retired service manager' style response. However, i sincerely all is forgiven now that ive got the shade of text right or would you like this black a little darker or lighter, im flexible?. Thanks very much but i think this will be a short visit for me on this site purely based on the attitude permiating from you through your response. |
actually before repairing it, try a bg transmission flush, basically they hook up a machine that flushes all sixteen quarts and then we add a protectant. Still works on ford transmissions so there may be a chance to save it. but its also possible the ujoints in the front driveshaft are starting to go as well.
