    Default my mate vn lost 3rd and 4th gear

    hi just a lil help, my mates vn 3.8 v6 lost gears 3 and 4, its an automatic, ive read heaps of forums over the net, and alot say that is the solinoide for gearchange 3 and 4 (there are 2 lots of soloinodes, one for gearchange 1-2, and one for gearchange 3-4)

    now others have said that its the band that goes around the drum that your clutches are in

    others say to change the oil and filters

    I got news for your mate and its all bad if the gears went with no warning then it would most likely need a rebuild which cost me $1500 for one car or you could get a secont hand box from the werckers which cost me $180 and me and a mate fitted ourselves.
