    Default transmission???

    so my transmission is playing up and was wondering if anybody could help me or something

    my reverse is completely gone but all other gears are fine if anything there better then before
    sometimes it rolls when put in reverse like it works normally but when yu go to rev it, it just revs and doesnt move
    does anyone know whats wrong with it is time for a new one or can it be fixed somehow???

    Common failures on 4L60E, symptom < cause > any possible repair:
    1. Slow, slipping or no reverse: “lo-reverse” clutches are worn out, fluid leak in the reverse apply circuit, or broken sunshell. It is possible to remedy a fluid problem by removing the checkball from its cage in the case in the rear of the trans may help (must remove valve body), or adding a high-viscosity additive such as Lucas Transmission additive or other seal restorer product. May also have worn boost valve (can replace in the pan).

    i would say it well on the way out. they are renowned for dropping gears i lost 2nd in mine. clutches and bands let go especially if not serviced regularly. many people dont realise how regular oil and filter changes can help. mine died from the supercharger i strapped onto it!!
