That's farked! You're a better man than me wrt setbacks. I'm not driving mine anymore (unless I really have to for appointments) until next year when I can use a spanner as it's just to frustrating for me with its multitude of issues. I'd burn the cunce but the insurance isn't even worth it to me so I'd rather see it turn to dust...that's my relationship with the car anyways!

My attitude might change when I can lift more than 2kg and allowed to put my farking arms above my head but that's for later. 

 

Keep the good, bad and ugly coming 😂

Yerp something will happen. For now I've just registered my Landrover Discovery, that will get the boat out and it has 6 seats so can take the family. Plus it makes hectic V8 noises, is manual and has low range, so a bit of a difference than the zf life.

 

And no it ain't getting a turbo lol

Was gonna pull the trans, went fishing instead

catch anything?

Nah nothing. Got sunburnt though

gotta love boating/fishing... lol...

Yep, every day that I don't work on the territory, I can go fishing. Plus petrol and bait is cheaper than car parts lol

Old trans out and new trans in. Just gotta button some stuff up and then I can drive it. We'll know tomorrow whether the fuel issue is trans/converter related. Also I ain't gonna chuck all the power through this trans, I'll run it on gate pressure, whatever that may be.

Well the na trans is in, I went for a drive to get some drinks for later. The fuel is no different so it's safe to assume the built trans and converter are fine. Trans oil comes out looking a bit sh*t sometimes so I ain't worried about it. Also a na trans does not like 470awkw.

 

Anyone wanna come and put my built trans back in for me?

don't think many people will take up that offer without compensation
