Hey guys
i was driving my car today and its getting worse, my auto box is slipping when it gets a few revs up. it has a full tank of gearbox fluid, and was wondering if there is somthing i need to cheek of is the gear box stuffed, and if it is stuffed how much is a manual gearbox, and the the cost of getting it installed as i dont have the time to do it, or can it be done in a weekend. im hopping its not a new transmition but i guess a 15 year old car u have to expect it

Probably best to get a service mate. Sounds similiar to what mine was doing as your car warms up does it seem to get worse? I got a service and have not had a problem since!!

Does it get worse as you drive longer? With stopping and starting again?

Sounds exactly like what i had i got a service from a guy down here who specialises in ford transmissions i have not had a problem with it since. So i would probably get it serviced and go form there. Probably looking at $150 for a really good service!!

I've had a slipping auto for the past year! It's had a service but that hasn't fixed it. I want to convert to manual, but that's because I hate autos. For your sake, I'd get a quote on how much it would cost to rebuild the auto, and take it from there.

Well today i got them to cheek the box out and did a fluid change and played around with it cost me $80 and it seems to be working alot better but they said its going to need a service or a new transmition, they quated me $1600 for a full manual gearbox fully installed with 6 months warenty is that a good deal or is there better places to get it done

1600 is pretty good, specially with the 6 month warranty, even tho they are really strong boxes (the t5's) so yeah i might hunt around if its gonna be 1600, is the gearbox rebuilt or just a second handy?

Honestly try and find someone who is keen enough to help you fit a T5 box up. Much cheaper, plus you learn something. The hardest part here is getting hold of someone who has the time to show you how to do it. |

I guess that price is okay if they include EVERYTHING; decent T5 from EBII-EL, new clutch, machined flywheel, clutch cable, pedal box (and installation), bushes, fluid, and an ECU ($$$) too.
