Replying to: vangaurd (Nov 08, 2008 2:39 am) I'm not a professional mechanic, but have soime experience with this transmission. I have had limited success replacing the fluid and filter, but have had to abandon use of overdrive in my '98 S15 SLS. With the 4.11 axle ratio, that limits the top end, but keeps me moving. You didn't say whether you have kept up with fluid maintenance. If not, try the fluid and filter change. You may also want to try selecting 3 instread of D and keep the cruising speed below 60. I have bought a parts truck for the transmission and was looking for tips on how to get the upper bolts out of the bell housing. Replies to this message: vangaurd (Jan 20, 2009 11:39 am)

Remove the transmission cross member and let it down a bit. When you get the transmission out of the the vehicle you are going to use, hammer the pinch weld near the bolts for future easy access.

This truck has about 108000 miles, Truck Jumps and shuts off (at stop sign) The brake pedal feels "hard" I even hear the tire screech like its stuck. This happens when first driving after it warms up it does not do that. Ive also been having problems with the gears shifting. It will drive ok in 1st and 2nd but sounds like it goes into neutral when going into 3rd it just revs with no power. If i let off the gas I can stay in 1st or 2nd..... The really weird thing is after I pull over and turn it off it will shift fine, but if I use the brakes then it will occasionally shift funny again. When I pull into my drive way and then shift to reverse (I can put it into reverse but it sounds like neutral again) it wont reverse. But if I shut off the motor then start it up and put it into reverse its fine!!   Thanks!!

#163 of 209 2000 S-10 extreme shifting issues by rwombough Feb 03, 2009 (4:06 pm)
Last week my son was driving my S-10 home from school and he made it about 100 ft out of the parking lot when the truck felt like it was in neutral. I told him to check the fluid and it was low. He put 2 qts. in and made it home. ( about 8 miles )Since then when I go to put the car in any gear it doesn't do anything.I checked the fluid and realized that it was over filled. I drained the fluid to the correct level and to no avail it still does the same thing.I also noticed that I can shift without having to push down on the brake. The truck ran perfectly fine before this and I know that I always had to push on the brake pedal to shift from park to drive or reverse.Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong. I'm baffled. It has a 2.2 liter and an automatic trans with about 80,000 miles. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rich Replies to this message: gonogo (Feb 04, 2009 8:31 am)

Replying to: rwombough (Feb 03, 2009 4:06 pm) I would check the shift linkage, sounds like some thing is broke or unhooked.
#165 of 209 2000 s10 clutch issues help by Fizzy Feb 06, 2009 (8:30 am)
I have a 2000 s10 with a 2.2l and a 5 speed manual. Yesterday I was at the gas station and up until this point the clutch worked perfectly. No slip, No noise, nothing. I started it up and went to put it into gear only to find that it wouldn't go. The clutch didn't seem to have any pressure. I checked the master cylinder for the clutch and it was full enough to operate but the fluid was kinda nasty, it had some black stuff in it. I can get it into gear if I have someone push it and once im going i can shift with out the clutch and it goes just fine with no slip. I went up a steep hill to see if it would slip and it didn't. Could this be total clutch failure, slave cylinder, or master cylinder. Please help so I can get an idea before i tear it apart ASAP.
