Hi, my machine has about 9,000km. I am experiencing some shifting problems and noises. It's fine at idle (in neutral), but rev it up a bit and I hear an intermittent clunking. Gets worse when in gear and moving. It will shift up to 3 but doesn't accelerate much. Displaying code 5 and checked the angle sensor and can't get a reading on the outer pins. However, I checked a friend's machine that is working fine and got the same reading. I want to make sure before I go internal. Can anybody give me some insight? Thanks

Code 5 is one of these: Angle sensor, related wiring, ECM, control motor, control trans section or trans unit. Hope this helps some.

You need to get the oil pressure checked. That will verify a lot on the internal functions of the machine.
