[QUOTE="julianf7, post: 29574, member: 25186"] Just wanted to confirm something. My GB for my N42 leaks, havent fix that for about 1mth+, no time. Last Saturday, the car engine basically died off when i was reversing the car out from parking in the morning (starting the car after leaving it for about 8hrs). Can hear the GB groans a bit when i restart the car and continue reversing, same goes for Drive mode. The sound goes off after about 400meters of driving. Sound definitely doesnt come from engine as it was overhauled 2 mths ago. I sent my car to Auto Raco and asked them to fix the GB leaking prob, am suspecting that the reason behind d sound (happens for a week+ dyy) and reverse prob (only during last Sat) was due to lack of GB oil. Told Auto Raco to overhaul if need to, but they said, dont need to since they suspect leaking is just a minor prob with the seal.Based on reading in the forum and what my bro told me, overhaul cost about RM3k if no parts are being replaced, right? can go as much as RM7k if there's a need to replace parts (my bro told me a GB specialist said so) :)Anyway, just hope that prob with my GB is just due to lack of transmission oil LOLJust wanted to get advice and comments from experienced UDMers :)Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
