    I think the fact you have changed the ATF and a temporary removed the Juddering conludes the fault is likeley to be the box or TC. I have changed the crank sensor for a new one and also fully change of ATF ( 7 ltr) and also added 1 shot Dr tranny and problem only fixed temporry. Dr Tranny...

I have a small hand held code reader and had RAC take a look and no faults showing . See what LR have to say

    Hi, Yes moving it to my house is an option as I live 2 minutes away from garage . Are you aware of how much hardware has to be removed to remove the box and how much of it would need to go back to make the vehicle safe to move .

    Crank sensor changed . Engine runs well as sweet as a nut when cruising down motorway at 70 mph 1800 rpm. Vibration occurs at around 1500 rpm at varying speed and load . Drop or increase rpm and vibration goes away. Fairly sure its not engine related

    After having added the Dr Tranny fluid and it worked then went bad again a couple months later I am optimistic that it is the TC.Had the fluid changed prior to adding the fix and that made no difference ,only went good when added fix. What else could it be ?
