Have a Range Rover P38 2.5 DSE late 2000 model - Did a fluid change to address delay in changing up from 2nd to 3rd and clunking between 3rd & 2nd and 2nd & 1st when changing down also replaced the filter. I had done a couple of heavy tows which pushed the car to the maximum.
The transmission fluid looked dark but red and of good consistency. I refilled and the delay in changing up has gone however the clunking as she changes down remains. I decided to add some Lucas auto fix so drained out some fluid to make room and the fluid I had put in (good quality dex II) appeared to be dark and brown ... strangely not in as good condition as the old fluid I had previously drained (having done no more than a couple of hundred miles)!?!? Im not sure where to go from here ... am I looking at a replacement torque converter or more ??
