I don't know how much the boat weighs. With AWD everything is smooth up to 60mph. Above 60 and i start to feel out of control. SO I stay around 50. I guess I should have started a new thread for this ATF question. Replace ATF fluid with 6 quarts Replace transmission filter Anything...

Hi All, :D My 2003 freelander convertible is doing amazing after replacing ECU that wasn't sending a signal to cylinder 6. Now on to the transmission: I'm now pulling a pretty big boat. My transmission has been slipping for the past 6 months while the engine is cold. Once the...
