Much appreciated, Phil. Do you know how much they usually charge for such a job? I was quoted £800 on this side of the North Sea.

I can recommend Mackie transmission had work done by them on my previous range rover 👍 |

The last (re-manufactured) 6HP26 torque converter that I bought, earlier this year, cost just under £290 delivered. I assume that your £800 quote included fitting? If it also included new fluid, then it’s a reasonable quote.

The RPM jumps 100-200 rpm at light throttle/low speed (30-40mph). This is supposed to be Controlled slip, is it not?

I got the oil from Advance factors when i worked on my box a few years back - they are a forum sponsor. |

try autodoc for the pan/filter, I just got my genuine ZF one form them for a fraction of the LR and OEM prices, and its the proper thing.

I found a local vendor who stocked LG6 and bough a Box (12l). I was able to fill a whole litre while standing in the driveway (so not 100% certain the car was completely Level), and it made a big difference to the converter slip. The problem has not disappeared, but it now only occurs on very rare occations.

Just to add my recommendation for Sussex Auto, they went out of their way to sort a refurb unit on my torque converter (on a 5HP24) after I took mine down to them. I was planning on dropping it off and picking it up later that week as they didn't have a replacement in stock but they offered to do it while I waited (about 1-2 hours). When I said I couldn't wait they then hunted for an exchange unit from a large batch recon order they had just completed which they regularly get in from Germany so to save me a return trip.

Another update on this issue. I've done a filter/oil change/mech-sleeve this weekend and was able to fill approx. 6-7l after letting it drain over night. Filling done acc. to ZF procedure.

I've found a couple on ebay, and one mentions a shipping cost of approx. £300, which is not a problem at all.

If you source one off eBay, just to be on the safe side I would double check with the seller that you’re getting a 1068 020 075 model with the Y94 torque converter.
