Hi,
Does anyone know anywhere in the Kent area, where I can get the gear box oil changed by flushing?
Thank in advance

I spoke to a gearbox specialist regarding autobox power flushing and he said not to bother as the debris and gunk it cleans is not always flushed out . He said that the fluid they flush with is very expensive and your not guaranteed it's fresh every time they flush .

A long way from Margate but Autotrans in Charlton may be able to help http://www.autotrans-london.co.uk/

There is a guy on the Disco4 forums called Geoff who does flushes, he is based in Kent. Not sure if he does FL2's (don't see why not), but might be worth contacting.

Thanks for the repy's guy's,
I've just found a place in Dartford at a charge of £220 plus VAT.
4 hours on dialysis by all accounts,
they've even offered to drop me off at Bluewater shopping centre too,

hi dave
be a bit wary,i called 2 auto box "specialists "1 in e sussex and kent,asking a similar question about changing the auto(atf3309)fluid
one told me what fluid they used and it was not atf3309,when i told them they said"oh yes"thats right.the other said something similar,when i reminded them again what car it was and what gearbox it has,they said,oh we miss heard you
both wanted over £350 and needed the car for a day!!
in the end I did it myself,took about 2 1/2 hours,not rocket science either.look at dunkleys excellent write up on how to do it.
good luck

Hi Sandy, yes I'm a bit wary of any garages that are not recommended by friends etc and was concerned regarding
the oil specification,
I did try to do a group booking with some of our SE4x4 response members but it appears that workshop, is only geared up to do D3/D4s at the moment,
I was going to have it done manually but my tame mechanic is in the process of renovating and moving house
I'll keep asking and searching.
