I reckon I gave the valve body a bit too much pressure and farked some seals and maybe a solenoid or two is on the way out. The trans has been flogged it's entire life, it was a nsw police car from new.

I have both; I can tell. Depends on driving style. At the drag strip, ZF 6 speed for sure. All other times manual rules..... 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/44361-the-off-topic-thread/page/8657/#findComment-1635563 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manual is for push starting. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/44361-the-off-topic-thread/page/8657/#findComment-1635565 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it 3rd gear most of the time in the Adelaide Hills. Occasionally 2nd on U bends going up and 4th when we had a relatively straight bits. I'd prolly have a manual except most of my driving is city peak hour and auto is more relaxing for that and the Misses needs to drive it occasionally and she only drives autos. So ZF 6 speed is a good compromise for me 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/44361-the-off-topic-thread/page/8657/#findComment-1635566 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for shear driving pleasure you can't beat the manual How can you clutch kick to start a drift in an auto. A manual is always in the correct gear because you select it.
