For the last month or so, my tranny has been acting up. Before the engine gets warm, it doesn't really give me a problem but after driving for a little while, going from reverse into 1st gear (or any forward gear), it wont engage right away.
It takes a good 4 or 5 seconds before it finally engages into gear. Tranny fluid looks good and I bought some of that Lucas Oil Tranny stuff. Didn't really seem to help much. I might have shaved a second off the amount of time it takes for the tranny to engage into gear going from reverse to 1st.
Is my tranny going? Is there something else going? Anyone have any thoughts or opinions on the situation? Thanks.
While I am at it, Id like to address my passenger front clickity clicking axle. Obviously its going out but how long does an cv joint take from the time it starts clicking before it completly blows out? Just trying to catch up on bills and such so currently don't have to money to replace the axle right yet.
