    6 Speed Auto trans question

    Can a 6 speed auto trans from a 2wd be put into a 4wd if the tail housing is swapped for the transfer case? Im asking because the 4wd versions are quite a bit harder to find in the price range that im willing to pay.

    Strange transmission problem

    The replacement is from a 2009 silverado 4x4. Im not sure what the Service Fast Learn procedure is ?? The original has issues with shifting and holding a gear. Also has fluctuation in rpm while driving, slippage is occurring, and the pan had pretty significant amount of sludge/crud settled in...

    Strange transmission problem

    Update on the transmission issue. I have found a transmission at a local auto recycling yard. It has low miles considering the age of the vehicle it will be removed from. I am capable of doing the swap myself however my main concern is whether or not this type of transmission (6spd/6L80) is...

    Strange transmission problem

    Went to the transmission shop Friday. Im waiting on the price list on my options.. Im hoping to get by with a torque converter and probably a new ECM for the trans. If we were going to keep this long term i would have it built but its not in the budget for that type of expense .

    Strange transmission problem

    I dont think that is the issue since the weird shifting issue started before the transmission filter was replaced.

    Strange transmission problem

    I didnt have to do anything to the linkage since the exhaust wasnt in the way. I was able to drop it straight down....while spilling atf of course.

    Strange transmission problem

    Not sure on the temperature of the fluid. I'll check it out the next time I get time to drive it. Originally I was testing it off the ground but I have been testing it on the road now that I have it full of fluid. I have noticed a slight howl or cavitation sound when it is trying to shift but...

    Strange transmission problem

    Yes, it is good. It is actually a slight bit high. I am kinda suspecting that the converter might be giving up. Im not really sure of the symptoms of a converter going out though. When it holds a gear properly it will accelerate quite nicely but as soon as the accelerator is released its like...

It will shift to a gear and it then seems to go into neutral until more throttle is applied. Its almost like it is hunting /searching...

    Strange transmission problem

    Agreed, but the only thing that I intentionally unplugged was the O2 sensors. I'll check again but is there anything else other than something unplugged that I should look for?

    Parking brake is released, and it will take throttle/rev in any gear i select.

    Strange transmission problem

    The display shows to be in gear and the fluid level is within operating level. I was actually wanting to run it on the stands to circulate the fluid a bit and recheck the level I only removed the pan, emptied it, cleaned the sediment out, replaced the filter and re-installed everything.

    New Owner and future fanatic.. Hopefully

    Thank you to everyone that has replied so far. Im thinking i might have the time and budget to go ahead with the periodic maintenance this weekend. It also needs a thorough cleaning inside, out and definitely under the hood. Here's two more questions. 1. Is there a way to diagnose the fuel...

    New Owner and future fanatic.. Hopefully

    The previous owner had it for 5 yrs and was not used as a patrol vehicle. I will be doing maintenance within the next couple of weeks just to get it on my schedule. So far the mileage seems pretty good for what it is. The only issue as of the first week of ownership is that the fuel gauge isn't...
