auto tranny slipping
Thursday, October 09, 2008 2:05 PM
okay so my tranny is slipping, it from a 95 less then 18,k miles on it. its gotten maybe 2000 miles on it since the engine swap. it seems clean, nothing appears to be leaking that im aware of. wife drove it to work last week and it just kept slipping out of gear. she said shed just hit the gas and the car would start to rev. no noises, no clunking she went out to lunch and it did it several times, she drove home and it seemed fine. only thing i can think of off hand is low on fluid but figured i'd post up and see if anyone had any other suggestions or anything.

Yep, most likely the fluid level.
Warm her up, get her in the air level with the ground, run through the gears, open the "fluid check bolt", fill from the cap on top till it comes out the hole, put cap and bolt back on/in.

this is sndsgood posting again, ran out of posts, anyway the problem is back, had to have the car towed home last night because it slipped out of gear on me after around 30mph and i couldnt get it home. worried the tranny is dead. i put a court of fluid in it to see if that helped and it didnt. i doubt its low on fluid but i hvnt been able to jack the car up and test it, but if it is low it means the tranny is burning the fluid up because its not leaking. only other thing i can think of is that electrical connection on the rear driver side. when i swapped the motor in i was having issues with it not shifting out of gear. replacing that tranny sensor fixed the problem. im wondering if since that sensor was causing it to not shift out of gear if its possible that the sensor has gone bad again and is causing the car to shift out of gear this time......
