Auto gearbox issues

Well Ive finally decided to have my gearbox changed after months of trying to get to the bottom of some issues.
1, When I sometimes come to a stop if feels like the box is still in a high gear and the t/c lock up clutch isnt disengaging ,although it does at the last split second.
2. Sometimes when I select reverse the car wants to "shoot" backwards in which I have to stand on the brakes to stop it.
3. The T/C lock up seems to come on and off easly which causes the rev counter to waver 500 or so revs.
Ive had it plugged in and has come back with a gear 3 monitoring fault, which I'm told is down to slipage.The tech also said he could feel a small amount of T/C judder. The oil has been checked and seems clean and not burnt.
There goes christmas! I've told my boys to expect an apple and orange in the stocking this year

I had mine done three months ago, it might well be worth travelling down to Jason in London if you can't get a good price,
and you can definitely trust Jason to do a good job

Quote from Jason

We offer a full rebuild with new converter with the correct long life oil parts and labour fitted for 1550

I wouldn't bother with those expensive apples and oranges, get a bunch of grapes and then all your friends and family will have an individual gift

What problems do you have with the gear box?

Hi Jason, As I Posted at the top of the thread, Had a new box and TC fitted last week by a local transmission shop all sorted now thankfuly. I was toying with the idea of asking you to fix it,but you are a little too far away from me, however I'm considering a tune up in the spring.
Cheers
