Hello, does anyone know  a specialist who can refurb my auto box ?

Thanks

Have a word with sir brixalot. He had his rebuilt recently.

Wavertree Transmissions

Yep. OP has been in touch and I recommended same garage. OP's down in Devon though

Good! I like Devon. Either OP couriers box, or l'll collect and deliver to Wavertree for fuel money.

Thanks to everyone who came up with info on auto transmission refurb, it is reassuring to know that others have been down the same path.  By a stroke of luck I found a company locally who new their way around a T25 auto box / torque converter and had overhauled many over the years, I was almost speechless and drove it there straightaway!
Van is now up and running smoothly with a transmission that will, apparently, outlast me.
Unfortunately  I am selling it after ten years ownership as I recently bought a South African T3. I am sure I will regret selling the Auto but also wanted to try something new.  I will do a Sales post on here when I get a minute
The guys who rebuilt the auto transmission are : Cornwall and Devon Transmissions at Lee Mill - between Ivybridge and Plymouth.

Cheers

Could be handy, Wavertree said they don't do T2 transmissions (which I'm looking at to get round ULEZ, problem is that I prefer T25s). Don't know why as it's basically the same.

Is an early,automatic Aircooled  T25 a possibility for you?

Probably best bet. Looking at current Prices I think I sold mine below market. A nice family bought it so I’m not going to cry over spilt milk. I didn’t realise all LTs were manual when I sold mine. An LT was plan A. Probably moving outside Ulez now anyway! However I don’t think it’ll be that long before it extends to the m25
