ZF auto re-builder in Brisbane?

Post by closet1092004 »

Well the ZF auto in the D1 shit itself last night - no forward drive, reverse is fine. Full of nice fresh pink fluid. No ugly noises, motor just revs and she goes nowhere (300,000 ks). Any ideas??

So I am looking for someone in Brisbane who knows what they are doing with the ZF and won't kill me for cost. Searching tells me that I am looking at $2500 - $3500 for a rebuild.

Alternatively, anybody got a low click one lying around??

pull it out yourself and that'll save you a thousand or 2 heh.
if your lucky might just be the clutch packs. pull em out and check condition of them if they're worn grab some new ones from www.fwd-motors.com.au(brisbane) they're a dam awesum place for prices and usually have everything in stock.

Thanks guys

Very familiar with FWD from the series trucks. The Disco is at the mechanics as, if it had to wait till I had time, it would be another month. Hopefully get a gear box guy to look at it this week.

No names for a rebuilder?
