My trans has recently started to fail, 1st gear is good, 2nd is good, when it's trying to shift into 3rd it struggles and revs it's arse off! Done a service on it, oil and filter, cut old filter open, bugger all shit in it. But oil is discoloured. Clutch bands/ packs worn? 290000km on truck so wouldn't be surprised.

And don't forget to check the computer, found inside the fuel tank, access via blow torch. Please video for our, and everyone's future education.

I would re-check the oil levels.
I have a pdf file here for the auto box (AUTO TRANS DIAGNOSIS - RE4R01A, RE4R03A & RL4R01A) if anyone wants a copy, just PM me with your email address.

replace the auto there are plenty around if you want to take the time to change the bell housing and bolt your transfer case on the back. this opens up your options from a lot of nissan models skyline/cefiro/laurel/patrol/mistral/silvia/elgrand/caravan/pathfinder etc etc all these models come with the RE and RL transmissions.

I just recently changed my automatic transmission myself, as I was given advice from an Auto 'expert' that it was buggered. Anyway turns out, after I put the replacement one it same problem existed and that the actual problem was a blown Transmission Computer.
So anyway, ive got a good Transmission for you if you need, Ill do you a sweet price! Also, where are you located? Could give you some tips if you are gonna do the job yourself..
