Jumping out of 4th gear (miracle cure)

Post by RAY1955 » Sat May 23, 2015 12:55 pm

Hi my bongo 2.5 diesel with automatic gearbox kept jumping out of 4th gear,obviously not good for gearbox or engine. I found Lucas transmission fix (which states stops slips) on E Bay and poured it in to my gearbox and fault eliminated.I now have a proper working gearbox. Thought I would pass this on as its a cheap fix.

Although it's only a partial change ... maybe more prudent to remove the old Dexron fluid and re fill with fresh ..

Yes Lucas additives and oils are very good, have seen some remarkable results using Lucas products.
