722.9 problem
since 1 year I have a problem with my gearbox.
the dealer has changed the valve plate completely but no difference
2-3, 3-4, 4-5 gear sifting is jerky. Like slipping/holding.
sometimes a lurch when I stop.
Gear change from 3-2 is jerky. Like you push the brake harder.
less power when accelerate from trafficlights. But when you push the pedal hard it goesss..
No faultcodes.
After adaptation it drives good for one day. then it is the same again.
The dealer doesn't know anymore.
Anyone who can help me. Please.
How many miles are on the vehicle/transmission?
now it is on 138.000km. the problem is still there.
I had the problem on 114.000. So on 118.000 the conductor plate has changed. The oil also. And at 114.000km the oil changed for the first time. So within 4000km 2 times oil change and one time conductor plate.
Several times they used xentry to adapt the gears. The first day it is wonderfull. Nice acceleration. Good gear change. And the day after all gear changes are very noticeable.




When troubleshooting those transmission is difficult, proper fluid change proved to be always helpful. Was converter drained during the change?
When you had conductor plate replaced, were new valves put on, or the old ones cleaned?

then after few months the valve body. Incl. the conductor plate again. So with new valves.
First the fault code was only the conductor plate. But I still had the same problems. After a few months the valve body. Then I did not have any fault codes.. but they advised me to change the valve body.
Is it maybe the torque converter? Is this possible.
