Hi Guys,

not created a thread of my own for a while. sadly this is not for a good reason.


Unfortunately I think my trusty Td6 is suffering gearbox issues. upon clutch lockup at around 40MPH if i accelerate slowly I get the cattle grid effect !

it has done it once before, but hardly not that often, but now its getting more common.


so im pretty sure my TQ is knackered

luckily i have been changing the gearbox oil and filter every year, so i hope this may of helped to protect the rest of the gearbox from damage from the TQ !


hopefully its simply A TQ change, so the main question really is does anyone know of or can recommend a good transmission recon specialists in the Hertfordshire / Essex area that i could use ?


Thanks in advance guys

It's had enough of all the extra torque from the chip-up eh?
