Check the fluid?

Rodney at Wholesale Automatics in Melb.
or
Dave at Kewish Automotive in Melb.

if auto is stuffed, be prepared $3000+ for complete rebuild.

O/D or no lockup??? If no lockup it a common as fault, well at least it is over here. There is a temp sensor in the trans that won't let lockup occur till the trans temp is up. Bad news, the sensor is part of the wiring and is expensive to replace, good news, most places that know of it simply bypass it with a resistor.

Cheers, Jeff.

also sometimes the mechanism in the torque converter that locks it up screws up apparently. Mine currently isn't working properly either, and i switch mine over manually.
