    alright, i got bought the car and it had some tranny problems, that ended up blowing up, so i got a second hand tranny which i was told was in "perfect working order" off the member, ZX 89 WA, im pretty sure thats him.

    that gearbox is in, and now the car just seems to rev hi and change gears at a hi rev and even chnage gears when i take my foot off the accelerator. i took it to a auto tranny guy on Mccoy street in myaree, he reckons a rebuild, but after reading that tech article i think its something else. like electrical or maybe clutch, i dont know


    also the other day when i turned on my car and then the idle dropped and it turned off

    any help

    is it turbo or Na, if it is turbo do you have aftermarket bov's, ones that are located where u can see them when u open the hood?

    Have you done an ECU and a transmission diagnostic?

    When you start the car, does the power light (orange) flash a number of times or just go solid then off?

    matty-Z zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    i did a ECU diagnostic today as well as a At diagnostic

    and i got 5 long blinks and 5 short blinks for the ECU

    and

    one long blink and 10 short blinks for the AT

    so it must be mechanical

    front clutch?
    if you have just had the new tranny serviced id be going back 2 those ppl and get them 2 sort the issues out. does overdrive work?

    Good point. Go complain about how it now doesn't work after they serviced it. At least they might have a free look at it for further diagnosis.
