#148 of 164 auto 5 speed by randy0730 Jul 11, 2009 (7:46 am)
Hello, I have an 04 Wrangler. it is not very good on the highway as it continues to shift in and out of 4th gear. I have the 4.0 engine and the tires are not very big 31 x 10.5 x 15. the mileage on the jeep is 61K. Compression is good in all the cylinders. But going up average hills on the interstates (Alabama) it will shift down into 3rd at 60 mph. Is there an auto 5 speed that will rectify this or what is the next step/move?   thanks   rc

Replying to: long44 (Jul 20, 2009 8:20 am) I haven't done it myself, but I understand that positioning the gasket properly is VERY critical. And if there is any warping of the metal, you have more serious problems.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: long44 (Jul 20, 2009 8:23 am) It would also help if you said from where on the transmission the fluid is leaking. There are many other places besides the pan joint that it can appear from. Replies to this message: long44 (Jul 21, 2009 12:04 pm)

Replying to: mac24 (Jul 21, 2009 3:33 am) well i pulled it apart yesterday and realized now that it leaking from the linkage rod on the top of the tranny, i pulled the rod off the get to the seal and when i hooked it back up now it wont shift at all and it wont even start.

Replying to: nomad443 (Jun 03, 2009 10:30 am) The noise upon shutting off the engine, I can live with. I believe it is a "Jeep thing", but the noise in Neutral gear is annoying. Thanks for your reply.

#156 of 164 will not shift when hot by rokabily Jul 28, 2009 (6:17 am)
i have a 2001 sport with 66,000 5 speed tranny.i just replaced the master and slave cylinder with factory parts but the problem remains the same .whenever it gets hot the clutch will not fully disengage so i have a lot of trouble getting it in and out of gear but if it sits over night its fine until it gets hot again
#157 of 164 Tranny Noise by papparon Aug 07, 2009 (4:43 am)
I just purchased an '03 Saraha, 5-speed, 6 cyl.. I drives great, no jumping out of gear, shifts smooth however, it sometimes (about 50% of the time), sounds as though the throw-out bearing is going out. When I 'm stopped and engage the clutch the noise quits. Throw-out bearing, right? I had two very good mechanics who both had similar jeeps, look and listen to it. Naturally, it didn't make a sound. They both told me that my year(s) and model jeep are notorious for tranny noise and not to worry too much about it. Back in 1991 I owned a brand new GMC with a 5-speed standard tranny with almost identical sound problems...the GMC mechanic told me this: It's an aluminum transmission box that resonates sound more than cast iron, the gears have much closer tolerances than the old transmissions and because needle bearings are used, automatic transmission fluid takes the place of 80-90 all purpose. Thus more noise will be heard. He cured the problem by draining a pint of auto trans fluid and added some "Morley's" stabilizer. Has anyone heard of doing this with the Jeep transmission or adding a Lucas or some other brand stabilizer?
