UK spec 1995 Galant 2.0 V6/24V Auto



After 90,000 miles my gearbox failed. The mechanics said the overdrive clutch had disintigrated. To repair it would cost £1500. They said get a used one. After two weeks I got one only to find its the wrong one. Sent it back found another this time the right one and it won't work . It has no reverse and only third and then slips into default mode



The suppliers don't know why cos it cam e from a running car.The mechanics don't know why.



Do any of you well informed peeps know why?


The suppliers have probably spun you a yarn ????

did you test drive the car it reportedly came out of ?

the mechanics don't want to hash around with second hand crap ??????

Nah transmission came from a reputable dismantler. They are changing it

The mechanics wouldn't have fiited would they?

But I have been told that the battery must be disconnected for the computer or ECU to boot up again. Is this true
