    My 5R55E transmission is leaking transmission fluid, and I have no reverse gear.

    Gotta love that JB weld, I used some in my pan when i put a drain plug in. Be sure to let it cure for a long time. Hope it works for you. Michael

    The Rev servo did not appear chipped or broken. yes new o rings. Did not notice oval bore. Did look in there for scratches or marring of the sides and saw none. Spring pressure seemed to be working on servo. Yes torqued the band adjustments according to the sticky thread. thanks
