[QUOTE="aidilj, post: 515438, member: 20536"] balan37, I guess yours is N42 just like mine. 1. Mine also had some oil leakage (drips under the car), went to ZF auto at gurney drive and advised that the O-ring between engine and gearbox needed replacement. Did that and also change ATF - no more leaking for me. Also DIY solenoid valve O-ring at the front of engine (see picture). 2. I don't have this problem, but experienced RPM pulsing when car is driven without waiting for a minute or two to warm up from cold start 3. Also have the truck noise in the morning (cold start) but will settle down in around 40sec (see video) 4. Had this, changed the four mountings, two at the engine, two at the gearbox - okay now (well engine still vibrates but you don't notice it when sitting in the car) 5. Don't experience this - mine moves whenever in D, depressing the gas pedal wiould make it go faster 6. Do you mean the engine hiccups when you do this or you feel the rear axle pushing the car forward? Should go out for a drink.
