hey all...have recently started having troubles with my transmission its an auto nd i lost overdrive nd fuel economy went through the roof,i made it back to town but now am having troubles as it goes into 1st nd reverse ok but has trouble shifting into 2nd nd 3rd,it hits 2500 revs before it starts vibrating nd then u have to let your foot of the acc to get it to change into 2nd then after that 3rd jumps in at any time,its not making any weird noises at all and wen it does change it doesent slip at all , and have checked all fluids all are ok ,any advice would be great thanx..........![]()
Thats what was happening with my t700 mate, would rev right out in first then would let off and it would hit 2nd and had all wierd slipping problems. I tryd a filter and oil change but was a no go, and had to get it re-built.
Ild give it a service with some good transmission oil and replace the filter, if that dont fix it maybe take a drive/tow to your local transmission bloke and ask for his opinion. If you infact need a rebuild you will be looking at $1600+, though would be a lot cheaper just to get a 2nd hand one from forums/ebay/wreckers
yeah give it a service and chuck in a bottle of trans tretment it might help
not sure on the v8 but the v6 has a kick down cable and just adjust that ive heard some people geting gbox rebuilt and all they had to do is adjust the kick down hope this helps
im ust saying ti might help, my gf's ford wagon trans was carrying on when cold not selecting gears and slippping even though it had enough fruid n shit.
gave it a service with new filter, oil and a bottle of nulon trans treatment and it works the way it should now.
always try the cheaper fixes first if youre not sure what that problem is exactly
