Auto box 'clunk'

Post by iammrbenn » Sun Sep 21, 2014 9:11 pm

Hi guys

I'm a new Bongo owner of just a few days. I purchased from eBay for a very good price a 1996 diesel Friendee and all appeared great until today. There is a clunk when changing from 3rd to 4th when accelerating. I've never experienced this before and wondered if any of you have any experience with it?

Thank you

Hi
Sometimes changing the transmission fluid and cleaning the filter helps if it hasn't been done for a while...It worked on mine.
Cheers
