[QUOTE="Roberto, post: 708153, member: 8160"] I was told that the valve bodies and torque convertors are cross compatible across both transmissions with no problems? No wiring changes ? Just plug and play ? Two different mechanics told me that. The valve body inside the gb (looks like a laptop) has a small plug that fits in inside another plug in the gearbox. This I suppose connects to the socket outside the gearbox and then to the wiring harness and then to the transmission ecu? Anyway I regard forummers opinions very highly so please can you advise ? Thank you. I have a second question, regarding your suggestion about getting the borg warner kit master overhaul kit for the ZF gearbox : 1. How much is that kit for a 5hp18, roughly? 2. Any idea if it is the same kit for the 5hp18 for the non vanos and vanos M50 gearboxes ? 3. Will this help fix valve body problems ? 4. How much for the service at Taman Bolton and how long do they take to do this ? Thanks Alan your advise is very important and appreciated. [/QUOTE]
