Repeat No Reverse.
Just put it in rev.. Click, Thunk, Racing Engine.. no reverse.
The OD light did come on, and verfied all other gears appeared fine, so put in 4 wheel LOW went over the curb and drove home at normal freeway speeds.
No not in.. $WD-LOW. About 45miles later, two blocks from home, the rattling began with anything over 15MPH. Next day the dealer pulled the pan ($125.00), dound very little metal in pan, and fluid looked pretty good, smelled burnt. Options:
DIY Rebuild: Why I'm here and can do the job. Please estimate? <$300.00
Freindly Dealer: Replacement unit for $1860.00 6hours labor @ $80.00 PH.
AAMCO: $2800.00 no cooler discussed.
Avg Dealer: $3200.00 no cooler discussed.
Avg Joes Tranny Shop: $2300.00 with exchange.
Junk yard pulled tranny: $650.00 with exchange.
I'm mthink the "5R55E Rebuild Diary " with the valve body maybe the way to go.
Accepting all comments and questions...
Such as what tech-manual to purchase and where to find it?
It is the 5R55E type, same question on the repair kit.
Thanks in advance for the help...
