Some fooking pikey,s nicked mine off my garden :rant::rant::rant:

Ooh tilt :bow::bow::bow:

That looks the cats conkers bud :dance::dance:

Yes bud , all should do this it,s just locking and unlocking , it has to unlock when you take your foot off the gas or you,d get engine braking like you would in a manual when coasting in gear . If you use the autobox manually , ie shifting from first to second to drive with overdrive off it locks in every gear to give you better acceleration , I think in normal drive mode it only locks in third and fourth, believe me you can feel the difference , especially in second gear :bow: The box,s feel different with O/D on and off , O/D off ( no fourth ) when you take your foot off the gas in 3rd you do get a little bit of engine braking even after the T/C,s unlocked , O/D on ( in fourth ) take your foot of the gas and they just keep rolling with no resistence at all . HTH Steve BTW if any of this is wrong i,m sure someone will put me right :D

It was great to meet up with you all again , havn,t been to many meets this year :headvswal , great weather great company and a great meal , what more could you ask for :hyper::hyper::hyper: See you all at the next one :duffer::duffer:

When your cruising they do lock but soon as you release the accelerator it unlocks then once your back on the accelerator it should lock again after a few moments giving you a direct drive :confused: well mine always has :confused: If it,s jumping on and off lock whilst having your foot constantly on the accelerator then as suggested it sounds very much like a TPS problem giving the gearbox ecu dodgy data and confusing it :confused: Hope you get it sorted Steve but do let us know what it turns out to be .

I,ll have a run out with the missus , she likes the dinners there :rolleyes:

Wotcha Dave :hyper::hyper:

Jeeez , that,ll peel the rubber clean off the tyres :shock::shock::shock: BTW mate , skype phone,s ordered :hyper::D:D

Sponsered by Beneton !!! :rofl::rofl::rofl:

I,ve just done mine , apart from lifting in and out it took me just over a day to do it on my own , all sorted now :hyper::hyper:

Have a great day Shel :hyper::hyper:

Get well soon Vinz and put that bloody polishing cloth down !!!!

Hope you had a good un you old git :tongue::duffer::duffer::dance::dance:

I see all the major airlines are cashing in on the poor sods either stuck abroad or losing their holidays !!! We normally go with another couple but sadly they can,t make it this year so this year the missus and i thought we,d hang and get a last minute deal and save a few quid , i,ve been watching some all inclusive holidays in Turkey , a few weeks ago the prices dropped a little , great i thought their on their way down then last week they went back up and over the last few days they,ve shot up :headvswal Went to the travel agent yesterday , they said the flights are dissapearing fast and this year they,ve not seen any last minute deals !!! just my bloody luck . They checked on one holiday i,d been watching and overnight it had gone up £300 , making a weeks holiday cost a shade under £1500:rant: Did manage to find one though so at least we can have a week in the sun :duffer::duffer::dance::dance: Rip off britain at ts best . Rant over .

I,m suprised you can Steve , the beer we got through and head banging finished me off in fine fashion :duffer::duffer: A bloody good night though , a top dj playing some proper rock and plenty of beer , what more could a man want:bow::bow:

There,s also something to do with the injectors , been told they need replacing at some point and are very expensive , was told the common rail type diesel mondeo was a better buy :confused:

Well done Pete :bow::bow: Oh and Lisa,s always looks fine to me ;):D:D

Was it as bad to do as you thought Steve ? When i bought mine i was a bit put off by all the " the tubby,s need doing , engine out i,m afraid " threads on here , but having done it with alot of help from my old mate mantav8 , i,m was chuffed when she started first time ( i did all the loom repairs :eek: ) :hyper::hyper: Gives you a great sense of achievement :dance::dance: DAVE , YOU DA MAN !!!

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: trust you :p

I work for a large-ish bodyshop chain Dave and we,ve been very quiet for a good while now despite having some major contracts with some of the biggest insurance company,s , it,s as though no one,s crashing anymore !! lol Alot of small independent shops are folding cos they,re struggling to get insurance work because of the large contracts they set up with places like ours :headvswal:headvswal

Glad your happy with it bud , as you know it wasnt the best quality/ fit i,ve ever seen :x: amazing what you can do with a grinder :D:D

Sounds like a modern Mad Max :confused::confused:

Bloody ell , the wanderer returns :hyper::hyper: Nice to see you back bud :cool:

Told ya to take it with you :slap::slap::slap::p
