Refit the hydraulic block, engaging rod (7) in the selector lever.ĬAUTION: Do not pinch the electrical harnesses of the speed sensors. If anyone can shed any light on the process I'd be grateful. Does anyone know any more information about doing the job though? The gearbox will need filling afterwards but I'm not sure how you check the level on it, I've also read the ECU will need reinitialised for the new valve block as well. Looking under the car, it looks like I'd need to drop the sump off the gearbox and then take the valve block off. I can get a new valve block for £525 + VAT from them and I've found one on eBay for similar money. I spoke to a gearbox place this morning who can supply the parts and they reckon that there's a very high likelihood that the fault lies within the valve block that's mounted on the front of the gearbox.Īpparently the gearbox in my car is the Aisin Warner TF80SC. I've had my 3.0HDi 407 Coupe for 3.5 years now and just recently it's started banging into gears, primarily, 3rd and 4th.
Due to walking away from the C6 I went to see last week, part of me thinks I'm better off with the car I know and sorting it out.
