Hi all thankyou for letting me join...

Firstly thankyou for letting me join .. now if I may pick some brains ?? We have had our 2006 3.0 td for a couple of years now after changing from a p38 . Lovely car and has not really missed a beat until monday just gone .. we were on our home home from holiday when at the top of an incline it dropped into 4th gear the revs went up as if it slipped then lost drive , I coasted down the other side to a stop it let me go into drive and tried to move but very clunky. Got recovered to get it off I had no reverse ?? Engine revs drop but the site as if in park . Put into drive it goes forward but as soon as I throttle up it goes fail safe mode.. I have disconnected props . In drive the lower part of transfer box sounds noisy ?? But will only turn one way even in reverse?? . I have dropped the oil transfer box oil looked ok a bit dark. Transmission oil a light brown with as far as I can see not metal or bits .. have yet to drop sump... up until this point the only fault it had was when towing up hill it would have a slight vibration but would drop into 4th and go ?? Am I looking at another box ?? I am a mechanic but have never stripped an auto box..
Sorry my first post is long boring and asking for help straight away . But dont want to do a box if it's only transfer box
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to landyzone
The td6 box is a known week point we recon they are made of chocolate, but you will get all the help you need in the range rover section there have been several people that have rebuilt theirs with help from Bemble on here, he is the God of auto gearboxes.

Thankyou for your reply, I look forward to finding out what's up and getting it sorted ...
