        I've got a mate who used to only work on them, whats the issue with it?

        Lifetime sealed box on them, so if its suddenly reving up it'll be replacement box time. That is a common problem., drive anlong at 40mph on flat and it suddenly starts to rev at 3.5krpm for no reason.

          this ones not sealed for life matey it has a drain and a filler
          ive changed the filter too

          this one was fine till we replaced the engine now

          its fine upto 50mph then the revs build up and speed doesnt its as if somethings slipping perhaps or its not changing gear
          if you floor it it goes over fifty but its thrashing as if its in wrong gear and also the manual gears dont seem right

            Basically my mate jsut emailed and said they are a chuffing nightmare

            they have a very specific refill proceedure, and the exact oil type is a must along with the exact amount added at a specific temperature. I'm sure you've done that, he said to read this:

            This didn't make total sense to me, but check that the battery on the car is in good nick, as he had seen all kinds of gremlins with under and also overcharging.

            That might be of use, hope you sort it Mark.
