In that case I'm a little confused.

According to the literature I have, it's the early versions that had 4 lining discs, mine is the later one apparently, and it has 3.

Now if anyone can verify this by trans number,this is mine

123 270 77 01 722 400 0221853

The reason I say it is the later one is that from the teardown, I found a V2 valve body, updated B2 piston, later Stator (the one without the hat washer), and probably a few other things, I can't think of right now, this is all based on my literature, if that's wrong, well then I'm wrong as well.

It is possible that someone has been in this transmission before me, but from tearown, I don't see any signs of that.

To give a bit more history on the situation. My B3 Steels are burnt up and pitted and worn out since the lining on 2 out of the 3 discs fell off exposing the steel under it, so it was steel on steel contact.

I checked the manual for the thickness of the steels and it came up with 2.3mm and 2.8mm for the inner ones, and 2.8, 3.3, and 3.5 for the outer one, however, the thickness of the steels in my transmission was nothing like it.
I'd have to measure them again to get the exact numbers, but I went with the closes measurement and ordered a few replacements, they turned out to be much thinner, or maybe I just need another one, however, I have not measured anything yet, I'm waiting for my depth gauge to get home to do that.
