loop it Member 62 Member For: 11y 6m 29d Posted 01/04/15 08:20 PM Posted 01/04/15 08:20 PM I have a bf mk2 xr6tI bought it with 220000 ish K's and proceeded to add xforce exhaust , plazmaman 800hp I/C kit and cold air intake and air box , plaz valve springs 1000cc injectors walbro pump and got it tuned on e85 at autotech on tuesday made 353 rwkw . Spirp seems to think I might have an aftermarket stallie but I think maybe its just flogged out ? but we both wanted more power from 18psi or there abouts anyway the real problem I am having is full noise 3rd to 4th seems to slip hard and go to limiter slipping 3rd WONT go 4th lights on the dash come up and speedo drops out ??? back off and gear indicator drops back to 3rd and lights go off , speedo stays dropped out until cycling the ignition . do I need a rebuild ? thanks everyone

However it should throw a code if it's consistently slipping. Could be oil level but at 220xxx I'd say it's the former unfortunately.

You might get lucky with a service but I'd say it's cactus. Can get them rebuilt now for around 4k. Edited 02/04/15 03:30 AM by Bomber
