No name? No N/A or T.T. info? No mileage info? No service info? No power info? No recent tinkerings info? No fault code info? No coolant system info? No ATF level info? Not even a "garage" for me to refer to to find out what you have been too lazy or too dim to write? Maybe you think I am related to the Tooth Fairy? My best almost blind guess! In this instance, being a Mines ECU won't be any different to being an OE ECU. The problem is not the torque converter, it is the transmission. If your transmission hasn't been maintained properly, (like most Club members auto boxes) you could try fitting a new strainer and giving it a full flush with premium ATF (Not the cheapest of cheap piss that many/most Club idiots use) and add a bottle of Lucas SS. This may resurrect it for a while?

Appearing through Scotch mist is an example of death from slipping clutches. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?343199-Auto-box-slipping Another one here. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?343349-Autobox-behaving-oddly Another one here. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?344037-Autobox-issue Another one here. The most frequent cause of automatic transmission failure is because they were owned by idiots. So unless you want to be next on the list, I suggest that you TURN YOUR BRAIN ON and read this. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/group.php?discussionid=225&do=discuss XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A better pic of the accumulators side by side showing different length of travel

RTV lubricates the thick squidgy cork gasket and the sump pulls into and splits it For whatever reason you might think that it needs a gasket, do not also use RTV

Gaskets cause damage to sump, cork gaskets are worse than rubber and a cork gasket with RTV is the worst of all. Sump after cork gasket with RTV A straight edge shows the reallity

Big sump line-up again, A340E-GE S6, A340E-GTE S6 and A650E V8. Note different dipstick tube for V8 engines.
