Thank you for information. This is information is very useful to me right now because my truck is currently at the mechanic of what seems to be a similar situation. I would really appreciate if you can assist me in determining whether I have identical problem as the one you describe by telling me the followings: 1. Exactly what and where to look for 2. Exactly what did you do to find out that the car only has a minor problem. Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated. As stated earlier, the mechanic is scheduled to begin working on the truck tomorrow, however I will ask them to hold on just in case something magical might happen, God knows that I really do not have the money for transmission due to my current financial situation.

Thanks...I hope so too. I will just ask the mechanic to do another look again. Thanks |

| Hopefully someone can advise me. I have a 1998 Lexus ES300, 137k. I drove through a water puddle and 40 minutes later the MIL was on and the car is straining to shift gears. Now, the car will start by die within seconds. Any ideas and solutions would be appreciated. | |
 I just had my motor rebuilt put it back into my 1997 Jimmy got it running good then transmission pump went out so i had that rebuilt they said all parts that broke were accounted for so my tourqe converter was fine. Now that we have put it all back together again. I can move the shifter to all gears but it is like it stays in park, it doest actually go into any of the gears. the shift cable moves, it is full of fluid I even tried shifting it to neutral and it doesn't even roll. could anyone tell me what the problem is please I am stumped on this one.

| transmission stuck between nuteral and 1st gear on my 2004 nissan sentra ser spec4. Dealer states that might of been caused due to operator error, due to shifting back and forth from 1st to 2nd and heating up gears therefore might have a warranty issue. anyone have any suggestions or heard of this problem in other manual gears? | |

| Hi, I have a 98 Taurus with 123000 miles and just had the filter and fluid changed. Here's the question I got thinking about after post number 2130. I priced a filter and fluid for my trans before I took the car to get the work done because I was going to bring my own parts in but decieded to just let the mechanic get the filter and fluid. On the bill the the filter is the same price that I got from the parts store but the fluid is a $1.00 a quart cheaper. Do I have to worry that he put in mercon (at a $1.00 a bottle cheaper) instead of mercon V? My owners manual calls for mercon V. Will having mercon (not mercon V) hurt my trans? I don't want to call and question him and make him think I don't trust him. Thanks for any thoughts. | |
I will be driving down the highway and the car will downshift from 3rd gear down to 2nd gear. The car runs good until it gets warm and then this problem starts. I took it to my mechanic, it shows the code P0715 input/turbine speed sensor. I called my neighborhood parts store and they said that they didn't show a Turbine speed sensor for this car. Then I called my Ford dealer ship and they too said the same thing. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
