Hey guys. So, after my thread on possibly my TCS going (http://www.grandprixforums.net/showt...29#post1158329), my car started slipping from 1-2. Its a very lazy shift and then a clunk. I'll get a video of it if need be. Other gears are fine and drives great otherwise.
Car has 140k miles on it now and i'm trying to decide what to do. A family friend is telling me trans probably needs rebuilt and wants me to take it to a trans shop. However, from what I've researched, a lot of times this may be due to simple maintenance (drop and fill). I've had the car for 60-70k miles and I haven't flushed the trans. There's the saying that goes around that if you haven't done it after 100k miles, don't do it, but I'm tempted to drop the pan, change the filter and put new fluid in to see if it helps or resolves the issue.
If it does need rebuilt, do I drop the $1500 to get it rebuilt (I don't have the means to do it), or try and ditch the car (I still owe on it) and get something else?
If I drop the pan, do I get it flushed, or just let it drain and fill back up?
