Hi again,
I've got a problem with the 65 autobox on my V8. When cold the gearbox is reluctant to change up into top gear, although this fault goes away when the gearbox has warmed up. When the gearbox has warmed up, the fault occurs the other way round! That is, it hangs on to top gear all the way down to about 7MPH and then "clonk" as if it is trying to find second and first at the same time. Also the box does not seem to change down to second through torque at low speeds. When the throttle is floored, the kick down works fine. I have had the sump off the box, and washed everything out, and done a complete fluid change, to no avail.
Any ideas Guy's?
Thanks
