ldv g10 gearbox problems Page 2

The LDV G10’s gearbox doesn’t implode on sight, but owner reports do orbit a few familiar gremlins.

• Harsh or delayed shifts, especially cold, sometimes calmed by a software (TCM) update.
• Shudder under light throttle or on hills—could be torque-converter wear or dirty fluid.
• Overheating in heavy loads/towing; transmission coolers and fresh fluid help.
• Whine, clunks, or limp mode—scan for codes before throwing parts at it.

Start with basics: check fluid condition and leaks, verify any recalls/TSB updates, and insist on documented services (these boxes hate neglect).

Still misbehaving? Get a specialist’s pressure/temperature test report before you bankroll a rebuild like a reluctant philanthropist.
