so i've had my car for two weeks now.
guy i bought it from said "drive comes and goes sometimes."
i knew the tc didn't lock up right when i got it and so began my affair with my gtp
the symptoms, when cool tranny short shifts to 2nd fast and tc locks up to the point of almost stalling car, shudders when tc is locked will unlock if you let off the gas. all it has now is second, and when tranny gets hot wont come out of second even when downshifted manually, but sunday it stuck in first when i downshifted to first. no whining from tranny really, jus shudders slightly in the upper rpms in second but it did that from the time i test drove it.
i cant pull the codes with my pos sct dashscan scanner, but it will clear them.
if my tranny is shot, how long can i expect a junkyard stock tranny to hold up? car has a junk tune, hai, and 3.7 pully.
edit: car has 180k on it
