| Hi capacity 9 row coolers for Renault DP0 and Peugeot/Citroen AL4 transmissions |
| Quite often the coolant flow through the old cooler is poor due to silting up, this coupled with the fact that the original coolers fitted to these transmissions are quite often of low capacity, leads to overheating of the transmission fluid. If the transmission fluid becomes overheated it can lead to some of the common problems experienced with these units, such as dropping out of gear when coming to a halt and abnormal reverse engagement. In many cases fitting the higher capacity 9 row cooler with the correct grade of synthetic fluid will cure or prevent these problems and save costly comebacks. |

Glycol Contamination Test Kits
This very popular kit is essential for testing modern synthetic transmission fluids to find out if they are suffering from Glycol contamination.
This contamination causes eventual failure of the friction materials, with no way to carry out a visual check and as little as 1% Glycol in the transmission fluid being a critical level, this kit can save you countless costly comebacks.

01J Selective Clutch Kits
When rebuilding the forward clutch and reverse brake on these units, it is necessary to check the clearances when replacing the friction and steel plates, this is especially important when upgrading the six plate forward clutch pack to the seven plate assembly (Audi only recommend that this upgrade be carried out on petrol vehicles of 2.0Ltr and over as well as all diesel vehicles).
