the atf is discoloured a little, smells like crap as always, but not burnt
Also i was wondering if someone could explain what high clutch failure actually means

We are a lot better off here Jake, we have a lot of very good auto rebuilders, that have done a lot of Subaru boxs. There may well be better facings advailable, as they are used in the Nissan box as well.
With the lockers out, I can't post picts, but the sequence is.The forward clutch is on for first, the band is applied for 2nd, the band is released and the high clutch is applied for 3rd, to get 4th the band is applied again. As you have lost the high clutch, 3/4, it goes back to 2nd, when the high clutch slips.
I have only heard of two other Euro models that have lost the high clutch. Phils in UK and one in France. I be interested to know what was the cause, was it due to flakey linings or low line pressure.
Harvey.
