Ok I have a 95 Talon, when I bought the car I knew it didn't have overdrive, which at the time was fine by me because I had a 5 speed swap planned. Little did I know how scares an awd 5 speed parts car was and how expensive they would be. So that's kinda out of the question. Right now I just want to get my transmission lined out and I have no idea where to start or what the root cause of my tranny issue is. So that being said, 1.) I have no overdrive. 2.) My car does not want to go into first gear. (the only reason it actually pulls itself from a dead stop is because of the turbo spooling.) 3.) When I shift into reverse it jerks really bad (wether I am pressing on the brakes or when I let off.) I have noticed that once I drive for a while and the tranny warms up it will not jerk in reverse. Any and all help with this issue will be appreciated. If I wasn't on a budget then I would have already replaced a lot of things. Such as the end clutches, front clutches, filter and fluid ( I have read these post over and over trying to come to a conclusion.) but I wanna make sure what I replace actually makes a difference. Now don't get me wrong I'm all about preventive maint. but I want to see progress first. I have had this car for about 4 months now and I haven't got to enjoy it any, except for looking at it in my drive way. Any help would be great.
