hey there everyone this is my first post here and i dont know if i am putting in the right place or not but last week i was driving home and went to pass someone and my tranny slipped??? well i had to pull over and i could not move unless i shifted it to first then second and i didnt have reverse. Well the next day i changed the filter and some of the fluid " i couldnt get all out". Well still couldnt move. Well i turned my overdrive off and all my gears 1-4 worked fine. no slipping and shifts... well okay.. so i put the overdrive on and nothing reverse will try as long as od is off but i have to rev it high to move and just slightly move. so i am getting tired of not being able to park and having to jump curbs to turn around can anyone help?

Welcome to this forum! Your 1996 has a 4R55E transmission. You might want to rebuild the valve body, replace the EPC solenoid & valve body gaskets, and torque the valve body bolts with a 1/4" drive In/Lb torque wrench.
