ok next time i will read it correct, :doh: :doh:

next suggestion  :-k

check that you have sufficiant ATF oil in the box, and also, check underneath and undo the bung in the bottom of the bell housing if you get oil (ATF - Red) out of there then it may be a faulty torque converter or oil seal, if none of these are at fault, you may have a vaccum hose split
