Hey guys,

Ive got a R34 sedan non turbo and Ive notice recently when I use tiptronic. 1st and 2nd gear are fine, when i accelerate rev is good but when I change gear to 3rd and rpm is @ 4-5k it will rev up as its accelerates then drops back to 3k after a sec. and car doesnt pull as much as when initially chaged to 3rd, then slowly accelerates.

its a bit hard to explain its better if i can get a sound file it would be easier..... the pattern when accelerating and changing gear is very noticeable.

It wasnt like this before, and I dont know why its happening. Does anyone had this problem beforE?

Help Please.

Cheers!

It's slipping. First thing to do is check the level of fluid. It's quite likely lost some and will get better when you top it up. Failing that it's pretty much on it's way out so look forward to replacing it at some stage.

oh no this sounds bad, :D I checked the fluid and its ok.... I guess i have to bring it to a transmission specialist to have a look at it.

yeah I thought its internal aswell, hopefully its not too late.

Thanks Ya'll for the input! really appreciated

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
