I depend on my old series 1 to get me to jobs.
It gets into 3rd, but when I slacken off the throttle (eg downhill) it then behaves almost as if it is neutral.
If I slow down and drop into 2nd manually, this keeps me going and I can can then get back to 3rd until the load drops off again.
I changed the fluid and filter, and added a Lucas treatment fluid, and got only a slight improvement.
I also adjusted the kickdown.
It looks like a 2nd-hand box is my best option now ( I'm broke )
Does the S1 take a different gearbox?
I spotted one ($50 - will be gone tomorrow) that seems good except the converter is not included.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
The situation is urgent.
