Basically the water boils up inside the box and breaks down all the adhesive etc... So things start falling apart. The Clutch packs in my gearbox were gone as was the converter, so it's pretty much a full rebuild. Don't know anyone here in Vic that does em that cheap. 4k seems to be the norm down here...do you know what parts they are putting in for that price?

I was in north qld at the time when we first did mine & shipped it to wa to get done. Might be worth ya effort to at least call them & see what they can do for ya. One mans opinion & price isn't always the right one especially with something like this that's out of blue, any saving is a good one & I can vouch for there workmanship.

Anyone getting anything for around 2k is a patch up job and not a full rebuild. I guess that explains the costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just weighing up my options and seeing what's cheaper. Would prefer to stick with the ZF, but if doing a manual conversion is significantly cheaper then I'd rather do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
