I think the thermos being on is the auto ecu going into LHM. I know with e-series cars you can just use a resistor to trick the ecu, but not sure whether you'll need a flash tune or similar for an AU.

speedo gear should be the same auto and manual, so you can just change it. if for some weird reason they're not the same, they are pretty cheap anyway.
as above about the resistor. not sure if it works on au's, but any decent tuner with capa flash software should be able to change the transmission settings, from what i understand the ecu thinks the transmission is overheating so runs the thermos flat out all the time. GK may have some help as he has done this to his too. good luck |
