Vevapower Waiting for the 1st N/A 12! Legacy Donating Member 2,533 Member For: 18y 7m 15d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 02/07/12 11:33 AM Posted 02/07/12 11:33 AM Ive just had the transmission serviced and tuned and it still does it, ive also got a surge tank so I dont think its got to do with fuel as it also does it with a full tank... It happens more often in 'D' and 'Perf' mode but still happens in manual mode occassionaly mainly 3rd to 4th and under full acceleration.Its starting to do my head in lol. Noob question for you Vevapower, what are the frictions? =/Thanks heaps for the advice guys.Cheers

Question is should I go back to bluepower and get them to suss it out or a transmisson joint?

brentt213 Legacy Donating Member 12 Member For: 16y 5m 4d Gender: Male Posted 03/07/12 02:15 AM Posted 03/07/12 02:15 AM Yeah it does flare in to fourth a little bit, never really thought much of it though..Before I do anything I'm now gonna change the fuel filter only because the symptoms that you described nathos are exactly whats happening to mine but with my luck I doubt it'll be that easy of a fix.

No issue can be accurately diagnosed over the internet. The people who have been successful are only speculating.
brentt213 Legacy Donating Member 12 Member For: 16y 5m 4d Gender: Male Posted 03/07/12 03:59 AM Posted 03/07/12 03:59 AM Totally agree with you paulie but for the sake of changing a fuel filter for $30 just in case is not too bad, it probably needs changing anyway!Im pretty sure it is something to do with the tranny so I'm thinking Vevapower is on the money.
