The thing is if you flush you get the extra 3 litres in so the best possible solution to the job.

Just had R/R/S 2010 auto box flushed and changed to new metal pan. £522 all in including double flush because of all the crap inside. Car was running Ok but saying it is 10 year old in January thought I better get it done. AGS in Holystone, Newcastle upon Tyne did the job and they say if you...

Found one under the thermostat, angle one grey in colour. I am not getting any codes, think I will try and find a fault running diagnostic in live mode.

Thanks Mark will look at that tomorrow.

2010 R/R/S 3.0ltr diesel auto. My temperature reading never alters, it just stays on minimum. I am not getting any faults or problems, just wondering if this is normal?.

Hi just been given a great repairer in Tranwell Woods if that is not too far, I haven’t used them yet but they were recommended by AGS at Benton. They are Alan’s Automotive ask for Paul Hobson. Let me know how you get on.

Decided to call into the local auto box specialist and enquire about price of new pan and oil. £349 plus vat, asked him which fluid he uses. Turns out he is a ZF accredited mechanic, so cannot get better than that. Saves me crawling under the car with my bad back and job is done to a high...

Hi How much is the Hunter to have done, local garage to me is doing computer alignment for £65 but not Hunter?.

JB Motors in East Cramlington usually has an old R/r for sale and he does good work, not too far from you.

R/R Sport 3.0ltr 2010, did the filter, bought a filter socket kit off ebay. Well worth the money as the 38mm fits the ACE filter plug. Filter is the same style as my last 2 Fords. Love the fact you don't have to get under the car to do the oil changes now.

Just done front diff, rear diff, transfer box fluid changes and engine oil and filter change, not as bad as I thought. I couldn't believe how much you get out using the suction method for engine oil, I thought there would be some left in. The biggy for next weekend is the air suspension...
