My auto box went south last week. I flush changed the ATF and she crawls around. It is an expensive repair and I don't expect much change from over a grand. I am currently looking for a local specialist. You are lucky because you live in Nottingham - you can go to Pendyme? (Ian is a Volvo god) - so it may be cheaper - Talk to Justin

I feel for you because it comes within a week of my own fault.

Whats the update mate ?

All sorted ? Something simple or another deep fried auto box ?

Methinks Bracer and his M56 are looking far too smug about this. Still waiting for the return. Sounds to me as the clutch packs have gone. I have seen mine close up - it is messy - just pray that the casing is ok.

No Dave mate you have my deepest sympathy I'm in no way smug, promise, remember how impressed I was after going in yours well there you go.

What would be interesting is to see how the 2 compare now without the Auto boy "Power Braking" ? Or do you feel that you will still be able to do it now the box has been re-conned ? And that its was just a mix of age mileage and extra load which cooked it to the core
