Guys,

 

swapped our my duff autobox a few weeks ago..

Swaped for another Auto-box and Torque Converter from a low mileage 90' model

 

However the car does not accelerate anywhere near as hard as it used to.. previously .. I just needed to tap the accelerator and wow..!!

 

Re-checked the fluid level a few days ago and a top-up did make the box change gear better now seems more like the normal gear changing (before top up this was over 1-2 seconds from selecting D to feeling anything at the wheels)

 

Once the car gets going the power is there but not on launch..

(can't even spin the wheels... if you can beleive this!!)

 

Any Ideas.. (oh also brand new strainer, gasket done before install..)

Have you checked tps setting ?? as if its not in the right range it will effect gear changes, should be around 0.45 on multi meter

 

Have not checked TPS..

 

The box is 10x better now...

 

I have consult cable but have not had the chance to plug it in yet..

The gear changin was never an issue (timings etc) I just felt everything about the box was "slow & soft" if you know what I mean.. but now after another ATF top-up last weekend.. the reaction times are much better.. I'm well chuffed now.. :cool:

 

Shame really (and typical) ...

Just bought a house this week and have agreed (reluctently after being coaxed by the wife) to sell me ZED to help pay towards the move.. :cry:

 

So soon to be for sale and will be listing on the "for sale" forum over the weekend once I can take pickies of her with her chrome wheels fitted (my rides pickies show my deep-dish wheels fitted that I have for the winter..)

 

cheerz
