1991 Legacy Auto Gearbox problems
Posted: Tue Jan 05, 2021 2:50 pm
Hi all.
I've recently purchased a 1991 Subaru legacy 2.2 4wd. The previous owner informed me that he had changed the original 2.2 gearbox with a 2.5 gearbox.
The problem I have is that, when the gearbox is in drive, it does not change its gear automatically. If I put it into manual 1 and 2, it will drive and change in those gear, however, the 3rd gear is basically non existent and does not work.
Has anyone had any experience with this?
If the TCM was not changed to a unit that comes out of a 2.5, will that be causing an issue?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
