Hi all, I have an 86 740 turbo with the automatic transmission. My brick has the AW-70 tranny and it has always been maintained by the orig owner (who I just bought it from). The car has 160K on it (just breaking in) but I want to fully service the tranny anyway. I heard there were some rear seals that should be replaced around 150k and solenoids that should be checked. It shifts hard sometimes so I will have the kick down cable adjusted and when slowing down, something clunks (sounds like somthing around the tranny) as the car drops to 1st gear. Is there anything (obviously besides the fluid) that I should just go ahead and have changed in the tranny while it is apart? I rather spend a little more now and make sure it is completely up to date and reliable. Thanks alot everyone, Joe.
