Wtb: Gearbox For R34

[Mean_R34]

I have edited the title since the mechanic updated me on my BAD situation.

Not only are my solenoids shagged, but there's metal chunks sitting in the bottom of the pan casing. sad.gif

I need to pick up another gearbox. Could get another auto, or if the price isn't drastically different, might be better to go the manual conversion.

Any idea of where to start to get spares in melb, or interstate if cheaper?

Thanks,

Dave.

Hi Guys,

Yesterday my car got stuck in third gear & won't move no matter where you shift the auto. (No Park, Reverse, 1st 2nd or 4th)

Could this most likely be a result of the ECU going into limp home mode?

Can this be reset by removing the battery? I guess it depends on whether this is stored in RAM or ROM.

It's just weird that it happened straight away and wasn't a gradual thing.

I do respect my car & do really give it a flogging, which I'd like to think is reason for nothing too major to be wrong.

Any ideas most appreciated guys!

So I am presuming you have switched the car off and then on again because that fixes the problem with my car.

I would try an ECU reset for sure.

Perhaps one of the solenoids has died. Check the manual, you can download it from here somewhere.

solenoids are shagged

Hmmm, so you guys reckon the solenoids?

I have turned off the car & left it for a couple of hrs, but no change.

I will work out how to do a manual ECU reset, but like you say, it's prob the solenoids.

Good guessing guys.

I nursed it down to the local Nissan Dealer around the corner & they hookup the the Consult device to the ECU.
