Me too! I need to chase up the parts supplier to see when they'll arrive.excited for further developments!
My XJ has been off the road for a couple of weeks for other issues, but I just got it running again. I'm still using it around town, where I haven't driven fast enough to find out if the lockup is working.
I don't want to drive it at lockup speeds, as I believe the failed attempts to lockup are what was ruining my fluid.
They do indeed - Dexron is what I've always used.
Meant to quote whoever wrote they use atf+4 but i didn’t know how to go back and fix my post
Does the fluid matter? I definitely wouldn't use Dexron in place of +4, but the other way around -- would most Dex/Merc units care if filled with +4? It's still ATF and basically a thin hydraulic fluid. Perhaps I'm oversimplifying the issue.
@clinebarger any thoughts?
