    TD6 Gearbox?

    Yes I hope it is just a sensor or something but would this cause the car to drive when in reverse? Do you think it's worth calling the AA so they can run dianostics, would the equipment they use be capable of diagnosing the problem? If it's the torque converter and box that's destroyed I...

    TD6 Gearbox?

    Surely not another L322 TD6 gearbox? Its's just taken me 30mins to get home that should have been a 5 minute drive after Trans Failsafe Prog appeared on dash? I think this is the limp home mode, only allows 3rd/4th gear, not fun! Just before this happened I was in stop start traffic and It...

    New/recon/rebuild Engine L322 ???

    Coolant warning did keep coming on because there was a leak in the radiator hence having it changed? Is there anyway that changing the radiator and coolant etc could have caused this ie too muh coolant/anti freeze? The did start 4 hours after the rad change or perhaps it's just coincidence????

    New/recon/rebuild Engine L322 ???

    Since developing this problem (ie the smoke) I have only had it running a couple of mins. Yesterday I turned the key, starts and smoke just pours from the exhaust.

    New/recon/rebuild Engine L322 ???

    Hi, You did the rebuild yourself! I would not have a clue, no idea! I started it up again last night and the smoke is more white/blue, I take it this means it's burning oil. So perhaps not what I had originally expected ie pure white smoke. Any ideas?? I would be interested to speak with...
