Yes, the auto transmission sump. But as you mention before, its just started, probably not much metal stuck on the magnet yet, transmission oil service wont help this. the only thing to fix this is to pull out the tranny and change the torqe converter, and do not keep driving it for long...

Could be the lock-up in torqe converter possibly worn out inside, its common mostly from 5speed transmission. to check this ,you take the sump off and check if there metal or like aluminium hanging on the magnet.

It could be your lsd doing that problem, maybe worn out. Never seen any ss or v8 with 5 speed automatic tranny, its either 4 or 6 speed auto. Maybe not strong enough to handle the power of v8 or something else?

They both the same 100% including the yoke, bolt straight up ,only difference is the gear ratio could be 3.45 on vz ss and lsd while your's 3.07 or 3.08 if it is 4 speed auto.

Mine doesnt throw any message or warning on dash, its just when i scan it comes up with low oil temp and low oil pressure. When i check the plug on oil sender, it got oil there. So i just order it from holden trade club price for $65.05 genuine including gst and delivered to the shop. I sprayed...

With no error codes, most probably broken sprag {its like a one way bearing inside the cylinder] you either repair or recondition or get a second hand one.

Is it a 4 speed or 5 speed auto? as you mention before{ Previous post] water got into the tranny thats why they change the radiator, then you take it to specialist and full apart the box and changed the sensor, probably solenoid not sensor. why did you not take it back to tranny specialist...

When you drop the pan is there any metal on it? if nothing it could be just solenoid stuff up, better do error code test,

Why did your mechanic flush it instead off normal tranny service? is the old oil still red or brownish color when you bring the car for service? Just change the filter and insist use the dex 3 oil on it, probably the filter is block that was causes it.

The 2 plugs that you said, its the inhibitor also known as selector switch, so being a vs you dont need it.just leave it or take it off.

Worn out or burnt forward band, could be also something wrong with servo, it need more line pressure to engage in 2nd that why it revs to much. Better take it to trans especialist to sort it out....

Its either strip spline or broken sun shell inside the transmision

You can also buy this valve boby plate repair kit , a lot cheaper from any auto trans supplier. But the thing is when this steel ball get stuck in the plate it will burn the clucthes inside, like the 3,4 friction clutches. Like you mentioned before the oil bit black, so chances are either 2nd...

Try changing the 3-2 down shift sol, the one at the front of trans, driver side.

The way you describe it, its the tranny pump causing this, probably when he put it back the converter not properly in and tightning the bell housing bolt will straight away snap the pump gear, its either change just the pump or get 2nd hand.

boost valve is located inside the pump, to replace it you have pull out the transmision and take out the pump. changing bigger diameter valve for 4l60e to increase line pressure, doesnt gain much cause the pressure control solenoid still the one who control the line pressure to give smooth...

Is there any noise before you put the lsd? if not, chances are you did not put correctly ( clearance between the crown and pinion called backlash) or did you put new bearing on lsd carrier or did the lsd been reconditioned?

Just service the trans and put some trans oil additive like nulon and hope for the best, cause the problem with your trans is piston seal inside the cylinder, when the car gets older the seal inside becomes worn and stiff, so when its still cold it cannot built enough pressure to push the...

If you gonna put turbo, my advice would be a high stall converter, after market HD sun shell, set of metal piston with molded seal for the cylinder, 3&4 high temp. friction clucth ( this set of friction is one sided only and no need to put the old friction plate)

I think youve got the problem with the converter, cause lock up clutches inside the converter could be worn out or damage thats why the car shake, vibrates when it reaches 80 plus or something..

Could be the spragg, or the overun friction clutch gone.

Extension housing does;nt have bearing its just bushing and seal.

The problem with your transmission is that the 3-4 friction clucth are burnt, so even how many times you change the oil it will turn black, this happen when you drive the car in limp mode for that long even not towing. and also overheat the tranny oil will make the piston seal became hard, and...

Theres a circlip holding the piston in pin just take if off, then you can take the servo off...

VN auto does'nt have electronic thing in there, they are all mechanical inside except the speedo(mech to electrical). and beside you cannot bypass the kick down cable it will not control the change of gear, better rebuilt your old one if thats the issue.

vs commy has stock 3.08 diff gear ratio whereas stock falcon diff ratio was 3.23 gear ratio, xr6 3.45, maybe thats why they are good in acceleration..

The question is how much for the good second hand or rebuilt vn tranny plus the modification you are about to, cause the problem with your trans is mechanical not electronic or u just think that vn tranny is more stronger than vr/vs ?

100 percent different, you cant put live lsd center into irs lsd. first the lsd carrier on live one is lower compare to irs [ you know where the crown sit] second inside the irs lsd have groove so when you put in the cv axel joint it lock there, while live lsd dont have them. it will come out.

Corvette servo is more bigger piston inside so it can hold more pressure thru the band than the ordinary ones, this servos act as your 2nd and the 4th gear. Well not sure about premature wear to the box but i know that some late model box already have it, i mean factory fitted but still depends...

Well its either low reverse friction clutch burnt or the sun shell spline strip or broken, the only you can do is recondition it or get 2nd hand from wreckers.

I think ute different from sedan, where as ute use leaf spring, shocks or sometimes stabilizer bar so the diff always in center and sedan live axle uses coil spring, shocks, upper and lower control arms, stabilizer also etc. but not sure about late model ute.

Flaring is like the box hesitate to shift to next gear and when it does, it feels like slipping. delayed is what you mean when it put in drive, could be worn friction clutches, thats why it need more oil pressure to push the piston and clucthes to engage, seal in piston become hard already...

Its the pressure solenoid that can be adjusted not the shift solenoid, does your box delayed in shifting or maybe flaring?

1.I olny use 8mm allen key on it, well sometimes its really pain to take out this allen bolt, just hit with hammer or if youve got big punch to shock it, done this many times and it works. 2. To check if it got shift kit, drop the pan off then take out 1,2 accumalator this accumulator got a...

Its either the pressure control or burnt friction cluchtes that could be the problem,

Both vs s1 or s2 whether it is for v6, v8 inside the same, only difference in early vs was the cooler line its got 5/16 as were late model is 3/8 as i remember. but not sure on v8 regarding with the cooler line..

Derale brand, US made have all the accessory on it, we use a lot of these on the shop. i think you can get this form burson or your local auto supplier.

try adjusting the t bar under, cause sometimes when car gets older the mountings get sag or broken so it affect the alingment of these bar.

it seems your pressure solenoid does not give enough line pressure , that why its flaring or seals, clucth plate inside worn out. try adjusting the pressure sol. by quarter in first and see how it goes. if not good, give another turn. you need a no. 15 torx bit to adjust the screw on the...

Only thing i think off is your diff, have you got lsd on it ?
