Hi All!
Had this posted in introduce yourself thread and al I got was 'Don't buy one'! buy a Disco!
My problem is...
Put it in drive and nothing, put it in 1st and when it reaches drive speed put it in drive and its fine.
Its not so much a problem as inconvinient! Traffic lights ect..
Any help much appreciated
Thanks in advance...Matt
 
from FAQ over at ashcroft :
A common problem with all ZF 4HP22/24 boxes is the failure of the one way "sprag" clutch. Once the cams in this one way sprag clutch "flip" the unit will slip both ways resulting in the vehicle only pulling off with the shifter in position "1" not "D" and driving OK when shifted up to position 2,3 and D until you stop then you need to pull it back to "1" to start off again.
 
Hammy....Thanks but whats the 'switch'
Stefan...Thanks but is this a major problem cost wise?
Thanks guys
Matt
