She’s all up and running again
They ended replacing the transmission with a refurbished unit, also a new torque converter and factory cooler. It was apparently all in a hell of state due to heat and bits of gears through it.
Now the fluid is circulating correctly, I can see the trans temps are higher than I’d like. It easily hit 100-110°C around town. Given my short time frame before I head off on a remote trip, I’m going to throw a cheap cooler and fan from Repco in tomorrow. Should help at least having a fan. I’ll source a better cooler on my return if required.
She all seemed to perform well on a 200 km run I gave it today, so hopefully I’ll have no further issues.
