I had my transmission rebuilt in my 1995 jeep cherokee, right hand drive. Bought it from a man who makes and sells to Japan and buys back to sell to mail carriers. It has 98 kilos on it only. Transmission went after 3 years and the recommended trans man rebuilt it and said it would be good as new. In the period of 3 months or less , the trans has gone again. When driving the mail route you can hear the high reving , no shifting and then nothing. It , the engine runs, but won't go forward or backward. Trans oil smells burnt. After dragging it in for the 5th time ive had it. I paid 2000. for it and today it sat outside in the snow all day. He change something called conveter arms that both bad (not sure of that name) said a bad batch proabably. He said this never has happend to him before. Now he is questioning my driving do i use both feet (no) etc. Like it is muy fault. When this happens and you let it cool down it will restart and shift and go. He has no answer and now is in no hurry why my post master is getting madder and so am i. Can yuou give me any ideas. This is my lively hood delivering mail. Now i'm thinking i should of went with the junk yard one. ty Alice

The torq- converter is probably OK. Try Dropping the pan on the bottom of the trans (Careful for fluid, no drain plug ). Check for debris in the bottom of pan (More than a spoonful indicates, Bad clutch pack ). Try installing a new filter and Install clean pan With 1 quart of Lucas trans conditioner poured in the pan before installing. Top the Trans with Ford Type-F fluid. Add about 4 quarts of the F before cranking, then add to correct level on the dipstick while running in neutral ,Apply hand brake for safety. Make sure coolant level is correct in radiator( it cools the trans). Mail serv. requires daily check of fluids. Good Luck. The Ford type-f Fluid has a higher temp. Rating than mercon or dextron.

SOURCE: 1994 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE-TRANSMISSION "SLIPS" ON TAKE OFF.

First of all make sure you are checking the fluid right. Some people do not know that in order to check transmission fluid the engine needs to be running and the temperature needs to be sort of warm althought you should be able to get a good Idea just by the engine running. In this instance you might have a governer valve that isn't properly working to shift the engine when hydraulic pressure reaches a certain PSI. I would suggest having it flushed and put in new fluid and filter. If this doesn't work the problem is more serious and might need some professional assistance.

Likely you have a shift control module malfunction. Module is probably on the right side fender in the engine compartment. Check to see if you have one (some do and some dont... go figure...I've got a 91 & 95... I have about five different diagrams and NONE apply to my vehicles)

SOURCE: trans drops into 3rd gear won,t shift to 4th

DTC P0734 is "4th gear incorrect ratio" - that's your torque converter 'LOCK UP Clutch" It's worn out (or you're using the wrong Trans Fluid required by Hyundai - SPIII OR Both). The P1624 is simply the Trans Control Unit (computer) communicating to the Engine Control Module (ECM computer) MIL - on request signal to ECM = asking it to turn on "Check Engine" light. MIL = Malfunction Indicator Lamp. When the torque converter 'lock up" clutch slips or doesn't engage, the trans automatically returns to 3rd gear and stays there (it's called 'fail safe' mode) until you cycle the ignition key, then everything resets until the malfunction occurs again.
You'll need to have an AT (Automatic Transaxel) tester hooked up to verify this. Hyundai has a Service Bulletin specifically for "gear incorrect ratio' codes. If when you changed the trans fluid, was it done at a Hyundai Service Center? If not, someone may have installed the wrong fluid.

SOURCE: My 2002 chevrolet 2500hd 4 wheel drive will not

I would check the wire harnesses for damage (pinching, cuts and such) from the transfer case. There may be damage from the trans install. Also fuse panels both under hood and interior. Since no lights are on it is probably a fuse or the harness is disconnected.

Testimonial: "I can't believe you responded! Thank you so much! I hope it works!"

SOURCE: vw automatic trans won't shift

The 01M and 09A automatic transmissions do not have a dipstick and procedure requires measuring and maintaining a specified ATF temperature (which is neither cold or hot, but in between) during the ATF level checking. Special Volkswagen tools are required for this operation and it is therefore recommended that ATF level checking on 01M/09A transmissions be left to an authorized VW dealer.

My 1996 cherokee sport runs hot, flushed out the radiator with a liquid cleaner and a water hose, and replaced the thermostat

If you have a thermometer you can do a poor mans check of your radiator. Go across the fins and record the readings if there is a big difference in readings you have at least a partial blockage and your radiator will need rebuilt.

Also check to make sure that your water pump is in good shape. A bad water pump cost me an engine on my 1995 Grand Cherokee.

When I installed a separate transmission cooler it not only solved problems with my transmission it also brought down the overall temperature my engine was running at.

My 95 jeep grand cherokee 4.0 4x4 with the 42RE tranny. Recently driving up a grade on the freeway, my jeep was shifting in and out of overdrive fine. but when i started the descent down the the other...

Try adjusting the transmission cable that comes from the throttle body. That is where the transmission gets it's input for how much throttle is being requested. If it's misadjusted and thinks you're requesting too little throttle, it may try to downshift more than normal. It's been a while since I've done this on mine so I don't remember if this is the exact procedure or if there are additional steps, but you have to pop the clip for the throttle to transmission cable and slide the cable as far in as possible then put the clip back. Next you'll want to press the gas pedal all the way down (may have to use extra force). You'll hear a pop and you're done. If you mark beforehand, you can see if adjusting did anything.

Changed the fluid and filter. Discovered part of a "clip ring" in the pan. Still runs OK. How much to replace with a rebuilt?

Depends on who you do business with and what kind of warranty you get i guess, I sell these over the counter for 875 with a 2 year warranty.

1995 jeep grand cherokee transmission park to drive shift noise

Check transmission fluid level, then look at transmission linkage. Some are in a place where they can be bumped around and knocked out of place. Tweek the shifter a little on both sides of the resting position when you shift. If the noise goes away. It is probably linkage related. If you can sample the tranny fluid, check for burnt smell and or metal flakes. Aamco will check it free but dont let them sell you repairs as preventative measures. They will try.

We bought a 1995 jeep grand cherokee orvis edition...the truck will not go into reverse...it makes a wierd grinding noise

Be sure that the truck is fully engaged in two wheel drive. It may have slipped out of gear on the transfer-case. Move the lever for 2 and 4 wheel drive back and forth a few times before shifting transmission.Good luck
