The auto DOES changed into overdrive - but it seems only when cold.
Apparently if you start the car from cold and drive up the road, it WILL go into overdrive.
Changes 1st to 2nd at approx 2,000 rpm
2nd to 3rd at approx 2,800 rpm
3rd to overdrive at approx 3,200 rpm
The car will downchange OK if you accelarate hard, and then changes bac into overdrive OK. You can drive for 10+ kays and it's still OK.
However..... bring the car to a standstill - then try to take off again and it REFUSES to change up into overdrive.
The fluid levels were checked warm and when the car was running in 'PARK'. He has already changed the box once and this box does the exact same thing.
