Hi All
I recently bought my first Landcruiser. 80 Series vx 1990 model.
My problem was the transmission. When it was cold I had to manually select 1st and 2nd. I then blew the from gearbox seal on the pump.I had some guys remove the box and they replaced various parts. At the end I had to get another torque converter as well. Anyway back on the road but with faults.
First they did not connect the kick down cable and say the box does not function properly with it connected.
Second problem is when it's cold I have to rev to move forward or reverse. This all goes away when hot and she runs well.
Third problem is when she changes from 2-3 there is a slight pick up in revs before she takes.
Can anyone advise me as to what to check?
