Ruby would like to go forwards and backwards again... if you have one of the above (cheap) she would be really greatful.

Cheers, Andy Mobile 07768390293.

mate delete your number open forum not the best thing to do

Andy200TDi · Aug 20, 2011

Cheers but I get time wasting sales calls all the time anyway... I do however need another autobox quickly (and cheaply, more importantly)!

what happened to old one

Andy200TDi · Aug 20, 2011

It stopped

jamesmartin · Aug 20, 2011

only asking as often easy to fix

Andy200TDi · Aug 20, 2011

Sorry James I couldn't resist it..
Lost all drive... don't know what is wrong, but time dictates swap is better than fix. Plus I know less about gearboxes than I do about female moods!!!

i might have one ill check on monday

Andy200TDi · Aug 20, 2011

Blinding!... if I can't get one, I'll take this one apart and see what is wrong... but would be good to get Ruby back on the road asap.

if all you lost was drive from standing but had reverse it could be fixed in half an hour

Andy200TDi · Aug 20, 2011

I was driving at about 30mph and just accelerated (I don't think it even dropped down) then with a very slight thud, all drive had gone... I tried lo whilst rolling, it crunched in but no drive, I tried difflock but same effect.

Have checked oil which is good and full. Someone on here did say it may be a shaft between tranny and box losing splines (could have been you).

tbh I don't want to get involved with removing the box. My wife is trying to convince me to get something else (and I am tempted) but we're both emotionally attached to her (Disco that is) and I've done loads of stuff to keep her going already!

id check it wasnt t/box before you buy

Andy200TDi · Aug 20, 2011

Just been out and tried rev again... no drive in any gear. also tried gently revving up to 2k and it didn't change up which I would expect if box was ok and tranny was at fault.

jamesmartin · Aug 20, 2011

possible drive plates sheared you can check by seeing if torque convertors turning there should be access underneath asa it wont come with another box

Andy200TDi · Aug 20, 2011

Thanks, I'll see what I can see tomorrow... got a mate coming round to help me get her on to drive so will look then. Let you know.

Andy200TDi · Sep 5, 2011

Well I've been so busy with work and having put me back out! I've not looked at the box... but I'm guessing that it may be the TC rather than the box itself... There are not any disco TC's about, I'm wondering (may have read somewhere) if a V8 TC will fit and if so if there are any mods that will be required to fit to the 200TDi?

afaik the transfer boxes are the same apart from the input gear, just check the serial number to make sure the ratios are correct etc. ashcroft website has all the info so you can find out exactly what youve got and exactly waht you need etc.

take the PTO cover off the back of the transfer case to see if the gearbox outpuit shaft is turning.
