rd1 transmission problems

[jsr]

seems like i have transmission problem at 181000 kms on the odometer. No forward movement after driving for a while. Have to cur off engine and restart to move.

options were

1... to flush out the transmission and add lucas shudder oil ( not guaranteed ) - a little costly too

2...buy a new transmission which i was told is about $4000 - $5000 used


3... rebuild/service the transmission which may be cheaperthan having to buy one..

got one quotation to service the transmssion for $5000 inclusive of labour

Anyne can help out here?

Oil pump in tranny gone through, you wouldn't. Get one to buy unless it's cable type

transmission type is electronic

interesting about the oil pump.... i will look that up..thanks for another spin on things

i suppose the entire transmission would have to be taken down to access the pump
can you access it without taking down or taking apart the transmission?

hope that this is the solution to my problem as the transmission diagnostic tests showed up nothing

price so ar or a used electonic transmission is $7000

Judus, do the rebuild man, it will come out cheaper and guaranteed less problems if any.

when my transmission gone i bought a front half and change the engine and tranny now its cable type and if it goes bad again a cable type is about $2500, i gott the engine and transmission for $7k and it cost bout 3k to install you do the maths from there

[Damien]

and yes you need to take the tranny down to get to the pump
