evening all, it looks like that after a long fought battle with its auto box im finally admitting defeet, 7 years of near perfect drving but this problem just wouldnt go away, thankfully weve managed to find another one for sale, so im not leaving the club,just yet but now turns out ive like a whole cars worth of spare, most of the other stuff is all good, and not sure if its worth trying to break it up and sell her or just to sell it (with byer knowing the fault), is anyone one on here looking for spares, feel free to call or text me on 07921 259332, or want to buy it ???

Did you try saving the gearbox?
There are some easy steps you can do to see if you can save the gearbox, check here:

And despite what people tell you, THERE IS an ATF filter in the YRV Turbo's gearbox, the picture is on the site.
Additional things you can do is pour a bottle of Lubegard Red in it. Also, check the wire/sockets connecting to the gearbox and make sure it is clean and dry, sometimes that could be the cause.
