    L322 Trouble codes

    Diesel Engine, Glow plug device or relay - probably intermittent if someone switched the ignition off while plugs were warming up worst case scenario the plugs need changing but it seems unlikely. What's the mileage and year of the car? Is it TD6? Any service history for the glow plugs? Egr...

    L322 Trouble codes

    Hey Russel. That seems like a lot of codes! Did you do a scan then took then saved the codes then erase them and then scan again? You shouldn't worry about the intermittent ones that pop once in a while for whatever minor reason and then just rescan and focus on the present ones. :) Clear the...

    I will get into it eventually. It will get replaced because rest of the gearbox is almost hospital ward like so most likely it will be that. Hopefully it will be back on the road some day :) Thanks for all the input guys!

    Thanks Saint. I wish the quality would be a little bit better. I am happy to be the part of LZ and I just want to give something back. It can be overwhelming at first but then you just get on with it. I can easily pay for the box to be rebuilt and just drop of the car to a garage but I think...

    This thread needs a major update as things have progressed. So two things are new. I got some 22" Asantis (it won't appeal to some I'm sure don't kill me) and my gearbox is out of order. I will gather my pictures and updates and get the thread up to date.

    Bemble aka RRPhil. An honor to have you in my post looking at my attempt to fix my box. I know it is hard to get the parts to test the block locally but I happen to live 17 miles away from a shop called the Automatic Choice who are official Sonnax distributor in UK. And as a matter of fact I...

    MOTD: So this will be rather picture heavy but should be pretty good. So we started with an oil drain as you do but then the sump revealed that my gearbox has been to a rather sleazy strip club... We let the oil drip and took the filter out. Then since I never really took the box out...

    L322 L322 Gearbox 3.0TD

    Exciting stuff tho! I don't mind the box being dead. What I mind is paying almost 3k to someone who will change everything for me. It drives like a dream still just sometimes I get TRANS. FAILSAFE PROG. But I figured early detection can be beneficial for the parts spend. I got a place in the...

    So this morning RR is on the ramp and wishful thinking was to take the sump off and hope for the best and so we did but hobby craft seemed to visit my gearbox giving it a good glitter quantities. I am taking the entire box out to check what has happened! Keep you posted soon.

    So today I took the car out for extended test drive and I got some good results. I wanted to fetch a box online but the dude is having a laugh simply he is advertising a box for £895 of course I'm not hoping that that price would include the TQ but then I call him and he tells me that even the...

    Thanks Saint. Yes I know its convenient when the box is out but I am not a fan of replacing things that are not faulty. I will look to get one with as I think then they will be in that reconditioned sync. So the TQ is welded shut as far as I know. To refurb it you have to cut it open then...

    Hey guys, It's been a while. So here is the deal. My gearbox is started to give up on me. Here is a scenario: I drove to my friends house night before and randomly when I wanted to reverse the gear did not engage but after restarting the car it was okay. I drove home that night no problems...

    Air con oddity.

    I can put the aircon on and have cold air through the vents but no fan even on full speed or max cold. I suspect is the resistor that has gave up.
