Hi..
New here, been looking at Bembles posts on L322 auto v8 box issues...
Just limped back from Cornwall with trans fail safe.
If someone can advise please
Few days ago...went to pull out of a lane 1st auto and bang- trans fail message.
Got home..checked obvious and all seemed attached..lol
Few days later, no warnings, drives fine.
Leave for Cornwall.. maybe its last time with fuel prices..all OK.
Pulled away at services 1st-2/3/2/3/2 shown on dash - 4th trans fail safe
Continued as almost there.
High fuel consumption, no power..obviously only in 4th.
Read forums .. poss gear selector, potentiometer, ign switch etc
Got home...crept upto A30 in manual mode, was OK until had to stop on hill at roundabout..bang 2/3/2/4 trans fail safe.
4th for 160miles
Check youtube- seems if it goes 1st bang failsafe..its 1st gear pack gone ?? New/recon box
Now I don't know if its worth trying everything else suggested or its a false economy before having to change box..
Please, any advise helpful as I'm not a rich Rangey owner, I'm a fan that pushes through the icons foibles ...owned mainly mk1 rr until this dream 2002 L322.
Thanks in advance.
If someone has Bembles email I would appreciate it
