Renault R10 R8 Automatic Repair -- A deep dive into the Abyss

This is the latest, and certainly most thorough repair of a Renault R10 R8 Automatic ever recorded to date. Its also the only documented repair ever recorded as well.
That tester box is what made it all possible. With that, and a whole lot of trying...... I hope to write up some sort of wee how to manual for these. The factory books don't tell you anything for how to actually fix broken parts.
Other then just replace them. If anyone has one of these, needing help about what to do. Send me a message... The car has moved onto a happy new owner.
So what I remember in a few years time about it may be forgotten.

Thanks for sharing your journey on this! I have always been fascinated with automated manual transmissions and how poorly they have always worked. You have an amazing amount of patience for sure.

Well, you fixed it, I think. It does work nicely with the dash switches. The testing and troubleshooting was amazing to watch. 🏆

Never before have I wanted a car just to have a reason to get a vintage gear testing unit for it!

Yeah, that box might be more interesting then the car!
