Hi guys been lurking for a while ,my friend has a classic rr 1989 , it was a v8 petrol now has a 300tdi with auto box ,new years day it stranded us on a lane ,we changed from low to high as normal and 10 seconds later it just stopped moving , it has no gears at all and when you select park (whilst running) horrible graunching noise (bit tinny) sound is heard .
So we had a nose at it today , there is a thick adapter plate fitted between the box and the engine so im asuming its the petrol gearbox , small insp plate under the torque converter removed and you can see the parts are turning (using crank pully) torque converter looks brand new ! . the oil is loverly and red/pink and correct level .
The speedo needle does not move in any gear when revved ,is there a common problem related to this ,that any of you kind folks could shed some light on , would be most appreciated as were at a loss
the lane were were on was a bit boggy but flat and not a strain at all ,i cannot find an insp cover on the transfer box to check that like the one on my disco . ( sorry if in the wrong section ,im a noob)
