## Discrepancy

MASTER CAUTION ILLUMINATED.  FOLLOW BY A/C YAW AT 33,000.  LEFT ENGINE SHUT DOWN (AUTO) SUDDENLY.  RED BOXED NUMBERS WERE VISIBLE.  OIL PRESSURE AND OIL FILTER LEVEL 2 ALERTS WERE ALSO NOTED.  CHECKLIST WERE ACCOMPLISHED FOR ENGINE FAILURE (FIRE BOTTLE WAS NOT DISCHARGED) AND THE A/C LANDED WITH LEFT ENGINE SHUTDOWN, WITH NO FURTHER PROBLEMS.  (MX SAID IT WAS GEARBOX FAILURE.)  CORRECTIVE ACTION:  REMOVED AND REPLACED NR 1 ENGINE.
