Hi guys,

Just had new wheels on and this happens!

This morning I had to limp home with 2,4 and 6 gears only.

Checked the Cobb which said error code trans PO847.

Disappointed.

Anyone with any experience? Do I need a trans rebuild now?

Thanks.

Hey Max,

I had this code twice, clutch pressure sensor B. located in the clutch mechatronic. It could also be piston seals in the clutch assy. Unfortunately the gearbox would have to come out. I used a second hand sensor first but that did not last long. Now I got the new WillAll sensors and seals that seem to work great. I fitted the sensors myself without a hoist. Not an easy task though.....

Pree, you got some pics of the replacement process?

Simple fix - sensor shit itself, probably, only issue is that tranny needs to be dropped to access it. Hope it get's fixed quickly. Shouldn't cost too much though.

It is only a simple fix if the pressure sensors have been previously remotely mounted....if not then it is transmission out and split it to gain access to the pressure sensors.

Hey Max, it took me one Saturday to jack, remove trans, split the box, install sensors and tsb clips. I waited till Sunday to connect the wiring as I wanted/needed high temperature heat shrink to insulate the wiring. Rejoined box feeding the remote sensors through the little gap. So now all three sensors sit in the pan. Thanks WillAll. Refitted everything by Sunday afternoon. Mind you this was done on jack stands. I needed a transmission jack which I hired. Not long but I enjoyed working on the car. I'm trying to add pictures from my iPhone, don't know how to do it yet. I need more time to investigate.

Cheers...

Thanks for the write-up Pree. That's bloody awesome - you could do that!

I don't have the hands-on know-how.

I'll be trucking my car to Martin at Willall.

Will let you know how it goes! Might convert to E85 too, while I'm there.

Could be what I had this year a broken seal.

The sensors are on the rear side of this assembly.

And another one on the valve body:

Yeah, getting Martin to checkout my tranny and clutch while it's opened up, after replacing the sensors, seals and wear-&-tear parts.

It actually had 2 codes: P0847 and P2715.

Doing injectors and pumps too while my baby is there. Will see what E85 power tastes like!

Just got my car back from Martin. He replaced the 3 sensors, gear stops, fasteners and clips. He also had to fabricate a new selector shaft. E85 tune is in (with ID1000 & DW65c) and the car drives like a frikkin beast out of hell!!! Love the meaty midrange pull - so smooth and aggressive. Haven't really had a chance to go WOT to the redline yet on normal roads. Need a strip or the track. Gear changes are now very responsive and smoother change. Martin also had to swap my 3rd gear synchro with the Reverse gear one, as the 3rd synchro was quite worn. Will post more on E85 power when I get more seat time. Dyno showed a massive gain on my previous 98ron renew tune. Plus an amazing 1072Nm of torque at 4650rpm! Overall - very worthwhile mod. Now I gotta re-calibrate my senses to all that power.

Torque figures gets skewed due to the gearing (diff, trans, etc). That's why auto cars that are roller/chassis dyno'ed have high torque figures. The most accurate way to measure the torque is the stick the engine on an engine dyno ;).

Power figure is fine. But I like to worry about the area under the curve than the peak value. Like you said, the way it drives is the most important factor in any mod (unless you're going for dyno numbers only). You can see that jump around 80 km/h mark = good good :D.

But it's pretty cool to say that you car puts down over a thousand Netwon meters of torque hahahahaha.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
