Check out Eriksson Industries. Not much on the site, since they mainly deal with shops and/or techs in the business, not much on walk-in retail customers. My colleague from ZF referred me to them. Are you trying to get a complete rebuild or just a torque converter? They usually have some rebuilts in stock, but when I checked a few weeks ago when ordering parts, they had a 10 business day back log from the time the unit is ordered. They may be caught up by now though.

Just get a rebuilt. I don't think you can find a new 5HP19FL/FLA transmission, as they are older now and any old stock from back when they were building them will not have any updated parts. The rebuilds from Eriksson will have all the updated ZF parts with torque converter, filled with ZF ATF, hooked up and ran on a dyno to make sure it's all working fine. Just give them the make and model car with the ZF model number and 3 letter code it you have it. Take a picture of the ZF plate on the bottom of the trans or the side. That will have the transmission type, serial number and version it is so you can make sure you order the correct one.

As for the D/G brake drum ... The tranny uses the D/G drum circuit when slowing down also, not just reverse... The Allroad uses a giant c-clip that holds the drum in the case, so when the drum cracks, the clip holds the edges in place, so you end up with a weak reverse. Eventually, the D circuit piston o-ring gets cut from hyper extending in the cracked drum and then you loose reverse all together.

I see Cylinder D and a piston and o-ring but it isn't clear where this D/G brake drum is. Do you have any part numbers?
