Right, it's all in and it works, but not as I'd like it to.
Transmission temp light comes on once it's been driven for a mile or so, but the fluid isn't very hot at all, so I don't know what's going on there. It did the same with the old box. I've flushed the oil cooler etc, but I'm not sure about the temp sender on the cooler. I had to replace the cooler when I got the car and the temp light has played silly buggers ever since. Goes off if I'm doing 60 or so and stays off until I go slower.
This box seems to take forever to shift into top gear, the box has been sitting in my garage for months waiting for me to fit it - and it was
90% drained while it was sitting. Is it likely to be something sticking which will free off (hopefully) or do I have to start faffing about? Shift from 1-2 is smoothish, 2-3 not as smooth, 3-4 not very smooth but they all seem to be getting better. Old box would shift into top at 44 mph, this one seems to wait until I'm doing 50-55 mph. Kickdown cable is the one off the old box, adjusted to it starts to pull slightly as soon the throttle linkage moves - I think this is how it was adjusted on the old box, but I can't remember.I can't work out what the "crimp" adjustment is.
