My names Tyler and I am going to be broke and walking because I also drive a Navigato

Tyler said to me in the chat that he has no 3rd or 4th from a stop. This obviously sounds odd, I tossed it in the translator and ... wala..

What he said was.. major slipping if he tries to start moving from a stop in either D or 3. Aka .. bad or dislodged forward band. Thanks for not telling us this before you yanked the trans buddy. Cause now you get to do it again.

first of all.... you!!! my damn thread title lol...... its to be expected I guess.

the trans didnt seem like it was doing this before the chain install but its hard to tell with a noisy broken flex plate.

now the noise is gone but shifts weird.

I have a few vids I made with the car in DRIVE and the parking brake on it has a chatter in the trans...

at 65ish on the interstate when I step on it the tach climbs but the speedo doesnt.

since I did the 7/8s chain replacement now it seems like 3rd and 4th slip. id hope its related to me doing the chain swap. and im hoping maybe the chatter is something going on with the pump.

now mind you I never had any problem putting it back together I didnt force anything or beat on anything and no I didnt have any parts left over!

ill open the side cover this weekend again. if this doesnt work then ill pull the transmission after that.
Odd its doing this now after a chain replacement. I never had the valve body off the channel plate so I dont think its anythimg with the vb.

Easy way to check things.. when you drain the fluid as step 1, put yer finger in the hole where the fwd band is.. if you get any real wiggle..you'll know if it's broken.

thanks bill I can try that wed when the shop opens up again ..... closed monday and tuesday. if its not that then sidecpver comes off again on friday or saturday.
