All the problems and fixes done by myself on my 2001 Tourer KV6 2.5 auto, have been guided by this forum. .
Well, several weeks ago my Jatco autobox begin to do harsh gear change only from 2nd. to 3rd. and only on slow accelerations, Up-hills and during down-hills when breaking. Other gears and reverse just fine. After reading many threads regarding Jatco JF506E on solenoids and reverse piston crack similar symptoms.
I did my step-by-step check: First; the oil change. Oil came out dark but with no burnt smell. I will say normal state after 20,000 km/2year. New oil (yes, the right one Rover-MG, right temperature, right level). Same problem. Second; solenoids ohms value review. Non out of range. Third; reverse clutch piston removal operation and inspection, no cracks.
Yes no cracks but the condition on the reverse piston is a little…. (one picture says more than thousand words).
Please take your time and review my attached PDF, and feel free to give any advise on my actual situation.
Meanwhile I´ll be doing the timing belt change….
