Thanks for doing the research for us Stan.

So you need to top up the automatic gearbox fluid on your Range Rover do you, Sir?

Knew I would trigger some of you with such an ingenious technical device

Had hoped that I could give you all some feedback on this experiment, but I can only give you my bad feelings about TNT Express
TNT promised to deliver today, but all looked very good on the tracking website as the ATF arrived at Bolzano yesterday morning and left their premises right away to be delivered. Looked that they where going to exceed expectations but.... Nothing was being delivered yesterday The courier was too stupid to find the address and too lazy to ask for, although I gave them the same address as is on the website of the apartment where I stay. I might think that if I can find my way there at least a professional courier could do the same So this morning I contacted them right away and all they could come up with it that they should contact the apartment owner. At 5 pm they told the owner that they couldn't make it anymore today and that it's going to be Monday .....TNT I'm really First I pay them a lot of money, then they send an incapable courier and next they are too to make up their fault. I did file a complaint just a few hours ago.
Now hoping for a straight delivery on Monday and than I can fill up and hope I can drive rearwards again. If not I'm afraid that I'll have to get the FF home on a trailer and myself with a rental car

Bloody infuriating some of these courier companies!

Looking at the title of my post.... No, I didn't drive it home

At last on Monday night the right oil arrived. Filled it up with that ingenius device (highly recommended as a cheap and handy device for filling up transmission!). Unfortunately after filling up some 0,5 litre no improvement whatsoever
The oil which was coming out was allready blackish (completely flushed some 6.000 km ago) and there was also some metallic debris in it. So really bad sign, and decided to call in my assurance for help. Drove home today in a rental car. RR left in Italy and is being transported home (probably will take some10-14 days )

Now for something completely different... Has anyone experience with the heavy duty TC from Austra Torque engineering (Australia) http://www.roadblaster.com.au/pages/RANGE%...L40-E.html

Sorry to hear that fella... Had hoped all would have been well...

Had I read this before I could have beaten tnt, drove down to Colfosco (sat) via Kiens on Friday.....

@Cam-tech-craig; thanks for your support

@DavidP: you sure could have beaten TNT by far! I stayed in Alta Badia (some 15 km before Colfosco). Hope you have a nice skiing out there: fresh snow on Saturday, beautiful weather afterwards

Anyone knows about anybody having experience with this heavy duty TC? http://www.roadblaster.com.au/pages/RANGE%...L40-E.html

Sorry to read about your woes.

No experience with the HD TC, but that's not the only reason the transmissions fail. You can also get a different valve body.

You can also upgrade to the ZF 6 speeder, but this does involve changing the rest of the car.

I would be wary of buying something so far from home as it means that you really have no warrentee.

new valve body incl Sonnax upgrade is also on my list. I assume when TC and valve body are replaced and (if needed) the gearbox is checked and where needed repaired I might have a very reliable drivetrain

Yes indeed about buying so far away is a risk regarding guarantee issues. That's why I'm so interested in real life experiences from FFRR members. Is there anybody out there? Please contact me

Must be 2005 Cairns Blue TD6's that dont like going abroard!
Sorry to read about your problems but they can be sorted admittedly at some expense! Mine was a blue one!
