My non turbo import z has had a replacement autobox fitted to it prior to me owning it,unsure if it was a re-con,but more likely to have been out of a breaker.I dont think the car was used since swap.(wonder why?...)
Ive not used the car either,since I bought it, as the trans fliud is leaking onto the exhaust and i dont want to ruin the box until i get underneath and fix the leak.Dunno where its coming from,car too low to see,no time to check yet lol,I assume its a cooler pipe or pan gasket?
Problem is,although oil level is ok,the oil colour is nice and clean, and the car shifts through the gears ok, there is an awful whine/whizzing noise from the trans,noise level changes when sat at idle and shifting through, between the gears,say from park,into reverse or 1 into d.
I'm just wondering has anybody else experienced this noise,I think the new box was fitted with the original torque convertor,as a spare came with the car...
Word at the time of purchase was that the clutch bands or brake bands needed adjusting....I've adjusted bands before in autoboxes but the car shift points are pretty ok in this case and engine brakes fine....to be honest,the noise wasnt a concern as a manual conv.was on the cards,but I dont have much time at the moment so i'll have to stick with the autobox and get it working instead...Your experiences please would be appreciated,before I drop the box and swap torque convertor,incase I'm wasting time re fitting a dud 'box....
