Hi all...

 

My Z-d ('89 z32 2+2 jap) gearbox stoped working properly.. Drives in position 1 and 2, and D, R. But if is in D not shifting up from 2 to 3 or 4. (overdrive or hold/power no effect) So i got only gear 1 and 2. Shift down and up ok between that. Fluid level and color is ok. Self dignostic not working. A/T light not comming up at all. The grearbox not even trying to shift up, goest to "tilt" in gear 2 and that's it..

 

I jumped to Red Cow Gearbox Centre to do a dignostic to see is electrical (guess: speed sensor) or mechanical issue.. but they ware unable to connect to the computer on my Z.

 

My question is, do anyone know's a good and trustabe service close to Dublin area to fix my Fairlady?? And what type of problem that coud be?

If the problem is mechanical do anyone have a good automatic gearbox with thortle converter for sale?

 

I really appriciate any kind of help.

 

Regards,

Mark

the autobox diagnostic ...is a bit of faffing around with switching the ignition and moving the selector / pressing the overdrive switch in a certain order it took me a while to suss...maybe your at bulb is blown.....?

If you are still looking for a automatic gearbox, then I have one available which was overhauled 30K miles ago and drives brilliantly. You can have all the auxilliary kit with it as well if it helps. Sadly I am in Bristol, England and the box is currently still in the car.

If anything check the TPS voltage, it should be 0.46v

 

In my auto that caused the box to feel like it had failed, no shifting etc.

 

The autobox diagnostic as mentioned above is your next port of call.

Richard can give you some specific information about the job, basicly my auto ECU was faulty so got replaced, but auto box was still dogy so finally got replaced too. Richard did the job with fair price. (free pormotion Richard :D )

I recommend to connect to a computer and read fault codes first, if u have luck then maybe just electrical problem.
