Hi all, I am in Australia.
The auto on my 2003 DiD has been destroyed - blocked cooler, no oil, metal filings everywhere.
A total rebuild is very expensive.
I have found two secondhand autos, and even after reconditioning, one of them will be cheaper option.
One is from a Gen4 early 2007 DiD.
The other is Gen3 2004 DiD.
The 2004 model is the obvious best fit, but is higher mileage and still fitted to the vehicle. That means an extra week off the road.
So my preferred choice is the 2007. But, will it fit??
I have to pay in full before seeing either off them (1000kms away)

Does anyone know that it 2007 will NOT fit?
thanks
Bob Guthrie

will it fit? YES!

Will it integrate into the electrics? I don't think so.

thanks Marius, that would be a show-stopper

Hi

Just had the same problem on my 2003 LWB.

Could not find a box and was told everywhere that these boxes don't break.

Eventually, after not having a pajie for 2 weeks, I was told that a Triton box will fit.

Got the car back last week Monday.....all good so far with no problems

I am happy to report that a Gen4 2007 Auto transmission does fit and work in a 2003 Gen3. I hope this may help others.
Something else that may help, is that hoping a transmission sensor is faulty may be be very, very costly. It was for me.
When my low-fuel warning light goes on, my first thought is not "must get that gauge checked". Same now applies to all warning lights.
regards
Bob

Was it a straight fit or was there some wiring mods to be done?
