Range rover td6 gearbox has packed up, do i need a new trans' oil cooler box & pipes?

RANGE ROVER TD6 GEARBOX HAS NOW PACKED UP, BUT DO I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER BOX, AND CONNECTING PIPES?

I have a 2004 Range Rover TD6 Vogue, It has now covered 140k miles and is always serviced at Landrover Main Dealer's.
My problems started just last week with the gearbox, it seemed to be juddering, but only very slightly when slowing down. Firstly the dealer tells me it's the gearbox linkage, they replace this and charge me £156. Next morning, I have no drive whatsoever!! The AA tow the car back to the dealer who now telll me it needs a new gearbox at £4k.

They say I also need to replace the Transmission Oil Cooler Box and Connecting Pipes, and that this is standard whenever a gearbox is changed. Another main dealer who quoted for the work, tells me this is not necessary, who do I believe?? Also, if these parts are not changed, and the gearbox packs up again, will this invalidate the gearbox warranty?? Please can anyone, give me some honest advice on this one!! Thank you

we does now how to spell.
Dont post multiple freds.
Knobber.

unfortunately yu have no comprehension as to why this site was created or how it runs.

As a noob I suggest yu listen to advice. Most peeps watch LZ-live and do not need multiple posting to be able to see what yu write.

now take the advice or not - I dont give a ****.

I suggest you dont type in caps, coz IT IS CONSIDERED VERY POOR SHOW AND RUDE!
also (yet another suggestion) download RAVE and see what it suggests - that way yu will have a better idea when yu get shafted next by the stealers.

They probably want to change the cooler pipes incase any broken bits of gearbox are lurking in the pipes and cooler waiting to be pumped into your shiney new gearbox

That sounds pretty reasonable to me - wotcha think 8inaV?

OK Dweebs..... The posts so far this evening have given me a great insight in to this website, and what kind of people use it.

I'm sure there are some good people, who can spell and who do have something worthwhile to contribute, be clearly it's not the Saturday night losers who resent any decent hard working person who can afford a Range Rover.... I pity you and your sad little lives!!! Keep working till your 65!!

You don't even have a car, you must be a sader **** than mr mad hat who can't even spell!!! Mine may be in need of repair, but at least i have a car, and i can afford to run, and repair it... Why don't you get a job washing cars, then at least your getting close!!! Plus what are these pictures you display you loser... As for the series 71, it's not about money and i think you have a great car!

I have company car cheers. The defender in me pics i had for work on a specific site-along with a company van. The range rover i owned but sold wen it was a MOT failure. I earn too much to give up me job and satrt washing cars(but the tax break would be nice)so your attack on me has failed.
Ps owning a ****ed car means you might have to start washing a few motors with the bosos...You can do mine, ill give yer a fiver if its streak free.

Then why don't you, and all these people who've posted these useless reply's tonight try and be decent helpful people..... I've really never come across anything like this before, who cares if someone owns a series 71 or an 2011 Range Rover Vogue?? I really am lost for words!!

OMG!!! If you can afford to run it, take it back to that main dealer and replace the coolers and pipe and what ever else he tells you to replace whilst you're bent over!!! after all you can afford it!!! you stuck up ****.
don't have a go at the guys on here just because they ask you to not to put load of threads on the same subject on the forum, there is a reason for that!!!
now what i would do is appologise and listen to the wealth of advise you may get if they haven't already come to the conclusion that you aren't worth the time to post a reply.
