Hi All....
I have an AU3 XR8 auto.......This afternoon I took off out of the carpark slowly and it felt really sluggish....Like it was taking off in 3rd gear.....It made a "thud" noise and it has been noisy since...Sounded like a broken diff.....It's worse when you hold it in 2nd or 3rd as you slow down.... I jacked the rear up when I got home. When I spin the wheels there is a noise coming from the auto box....It's much worse when I turn the wheels in reverse..... It sounds terminal. How much to change the box with a reco unit???? How much approximately to change over to a 5spd?? I'm in Liverpool(Sydney)...Any recomendations for a transmission shop?? Many Thanks. Doug. |

If someone buys me a T56, I'll donate my 5spd box to you
