Freelander 2 (LR2) Auto Box Oil Fill after Torque Converter Swap

Hi All,

I have just put a new engine in my FL2 and while it was out I took the opportunity to get the TC rebuilt to hopefully get rid of the dreaded 1600RPM juddering problem. The rebuilt TC is back in and I've drained the oil from the box to replace it. I've read about the standard procedure to replace the ATF but are there any additional steps I should take because the TC will have no ATF in it? Will it just fill up before the oil starts to come out of the fill level tube?

Cheers

The TC will only fill once the engine is started, as the box pump needs to be pumping fluid about the system.
Best advice is to fill it to the level plug, start the engine, then top up as needed.
