Re: [doc] Workshop Manual! (errors)

["Richard Hanlon" <rahanlon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My favourite bit is how it describes removing the A/T computer.  It claims 
unless you're changing the shift soleniods, you don't have to drain the 
sump.  So you can imagine I got a hell of a surprise when I removed one of 
the computer's sockets and several litres of warm transmission fluid freely 
flowed all over me and my token one sheet of newspaper!  It later transpired 
the other socket is clipped on INSIDE anyway so the sump not only has to be 
drained, it also has to come off altogether!

D'oh!
