At gearbox problem




By john rover on May 30, 2008

" "
I have a automatic diesel car. when i take off normally going into 3rd gear goes into it with a thump. if i drive off with more speed, it changes gears very smoothly. would this have anything to do with the oil in the transmission box?

Thank you for replying, i just got a mechanic to change the fluid but problem still there. Would what you suggested be very expensive to do? ie sticking or broken valve springs.
Its a march 2001 rover 75 cdt 2.0 diesel auto by the way.

depending on the year of the vehicle most manufactures not all have a specific type of fluid for the transmission. newer ones( what year is the vehicle?) this could be a sitcking valve in the valve body or a broken 2-3 valve spring in the valve body of your transmission, or a broken servo spring.
