    Yeah i got the 24 box as i am just going to try and fit it. I do understand what you said about the 22 box but it was just the closest box was over 200 miles away and i cudnt afford to have it delivered

    Yeah i know that but i didnt think there was that much work involved. Well i have bought a gearbox and off to pick it up soon. Really need datatek to answer my message so i can get started with changing the box

    Yeah i realise how much of a job it will be as i have spoke to a auto transmission specialist. They charge £150 to strip and identify problem and then it costs another £150 you want it rebuilding without repair :eek:

    yeah that what i think hence my thinking of changing the gearbox but a mechanic friend keeps saying it could be that but it shows the correct gear on dash

    Oil was brown/ black and filter was filthy too. Its started to sort of work in reverse but takes loads of revs to move a few inches and i have very slight incline on my drive and as soon as it was trying to get up it just stopped dead.

    cheers for that i am hoping i can find one for the right price now. i am going to do the box first as i am a little short on cash so i will do the torque convertor in the next 2 months. will a 4.0 or 4.6 front prop fit on my diesel p38?

    would the gear ratios still be same as i thought i could only install one from p38 4.0l or 2.5?
  18. J

    Reverse not engaging

    hi thanks for that wasnt sure i thought torque convertor. would you happen to know if i can drop my box out and put another box straight in and connect it up?
