2.0 is not DBW, so it won't be a straight swap engine wise.....

at that price surely must be a good buy for anyone with a 2 litre and knackered box

Been quoted £600 to have torque converter replaced. So was thinking if this fitted I would be better replacing it with a new box and paying a couple of quid to have it fitted.

So it wont fit in my 2.2

Given the symptoms, I think you are writing off the existing TC too early.

Have you metered out the cables from the plugs on gearbox back to the TCM?

Really don't know all I know is that I will have to put it back into auto transmission specialist who told me that if it was not the solonoid it would be the TC and woild be £600. No ifs no buts.

Your codes imply 2 different, unrelated solenoid faults, to me that smacks of an electrical/wiring fault.

My expereince of 'specialists' is they aren't

there's a big auto transmission 'specialist' on Trafford Park that told me SWMBO's auto box was stuffed. After a considerable sum of money exchanged the car came back exactly as was before he 'fixed it'. After trying to bull5h1t me .... I got my money back. There are 'specialists' & there are 'specialists'
SWMBO's problem was an electrical fault ie damaged loom.

Went out in her tonight and the all the gearbox lights are now staying on. Dont know what can happen next except explode. LOL

what code reader are you using to see these codes, and can it be reset?

Just a cheapy ELM 327 and it reads the codes but will not reset them
