help on a/t

[bratski]

I have an everest a/t and just today parang nagloloko siya. On a flat road pag nag reverse ok naman siya pero pag nilagay sa drive ayaw umabante, even when i step on the accelerator. I thought at first stuck up na naman ang preno like 2 weeks ago. Pero nung nilagay ko uli sa reverse normal naman pag atras.Mga 3 or 4 times kong ginawa ito (forward-reverse pero each time ayaw talaga umabante)finally on the 5th time umabante na, hindi naman uli nangyari itong incident. what could be wrong? imposible namang stock up brakes kasi pag naka reverse umaatras without any problems.Kumakagat rin naman ang drive kasi nafefeel mong nag engage ang gear.

Posibleng yung detent dun sa mismong shifter ay hindi pumantay dun sa detent dun sa mismong transmission [it is connected by a series of rods and other thingamajigs]. So kahit dun sa detent mo sa shifter ay 'D' na, baka hindi pa talaga umabot dun sa setting na 'D' dun sa mismong transmission. Sana sinubukan mo 'lumampas' ng 'D' [e.g. going to '2' or '1']. This can be adjusted if it is persistent.

Iyon kasi nangyari sakin sa Starex. Naka-D na pero ayaw umabante. Hindi ko naman na pina-adjust. Bihirang-bihira lang naman mangyari (siguro 2x pa lang).

sir otep,
hindi ko nasubukan ilagay sa 2 or 1. Pero pag lagay sa D may naramdaman naman akong shift shock na parang aabante. when i released the brakes hindi nag creep ang i applied gas para umandar(umabante pero a few inches lang siguro), yung feeling na parang may kalso mga gulong kaya ayaw umabante. Nag try ako mag reverse to another area to test it at ganun parin.First time lang nangyari ito pero sunod sunod naman. Nung umabante na hindi na naulit kaso im worried na baka may nasira sa transmission

When was the last time your change the trans oil?Maybe it's time to drop the pan and look for metal particles.

[bratski]

havent changed the at oil yet. 36k na on the odo, does it have to be changed this early? by the way, does anybody know how much atf is needed for the everest atf change?and what brand do other owners use

[m_ron]

yeah its too early to change at 36k but if you're having a problem with your trans i guess draining and filling your trans oil(no flushing since it's only 36k) and checking the pan for metal particles is a good insurance.

[speedyfix]

you're prob under warranty pa... send it back to the dealership

anyone know a good mechanic for automatic transmission? my opel omega is having some problems. i know that it uses the same transmission as some bimmers - 4L30E.

thanks.

[theveed]

Try this first, shift mo sa "2" or any gear lower sa D, does it move? If so, baka shifter bushing lang yan like mine...

Check out my thread a few months (or last year ata hehe)

That's a GM transmission.

[triggerman]

4L30E is a GM tranny but understand that some BMW 5 series are using the same. Know of any good mechanic - one who knows how and understands auto tranny ?

[Galactus]

You'll be hard pressed to find one here in RP...

But dont ever go to Automatic Transmission Master along Visayas Avenue...first thing they'll recommend is to overhaul your A/T (without doing a comprehensive diagnosis), and charge you an arm and a leg for it...

[bratski]

after last sunday nung nangyari ang incident about my a/t hindi pa nauulit uli, sana hindi na bumalik, its pretty expensive to repair an a/t pa naman

[bratski]

it happened again a while ago, while im reversing ok naman, tapos when i put it in D parang may kalso sa gulong, so nilagpasan ko "D" and deretso sa "2" pero ganun parin. Nung piniga ko mabuti accelerator umabante kaso when i release the gas pedal hinto rin siya. tingin ko stuck up ang brakes, pero its weird dahil pag reverse ako wala namang problema, pag forward lang.sa brakes kaya ito?

[vinj]

Try to check the brakes as the caliper may be sticking. Same thing happened to my Frontier before and i had to overhaul the calipers.

BTW, if you want to change all the fluid in the ATF (since the regular drain and change only changes what's in the tranny and not in the torque converter), try the Transtech at Autotechnika... we did it to our old Corona and it was worth it. ;) Nawala din yung shift shock.

Nawala ba ang shift shock dahil kaunti or sobra dati ang ATF? Or luma lang ang ATF nun? Kasi sa Crosswind ko, malakas ang shift shock niya in the morning (first shift from overnight), pero pag warmed up na ang transmission, may shift shock pa din pero lessened na (normal).

Gusto ko pa-adjust sa Casa kaso ayaw nila galawin kasi baka daw lumala. Nung ganun ang sinabi di na ako nagpumilit kasi parang di nga nila alam gawin.

[vinj]

I feel it was more of a case of the ATF being sooo friggin old as the previous owner didnt bother to change it... as i mentioned on the Autotechnika thread, we used up 24L of ATF to get it to clinically clean readings. It got rid of the shift shock I would experience after suddenly releasing/flicking the gas pedal at a mid to high RPM.

[bratski]

ano ba klase ng atf para sa everest? i tried looking at the manual and walang nakasulat dun. dexron 2 ba o dexron 3? and ilan ang capacity sa isang atf change? halos lahat yata ng capacity nakasulat dun sa manual except yung atf quantity and kind of atf

[m_ron]

did i tell you to change the fluid? anyway since 36k lang ang mileage just drain and fill lang ang gawin mo(no need for flushing)and don't forget to drop the pan, remember to torque it right kung hindi mag leak ang oil pan mo.kung wala sa owner's manual try mo sa dipstick or tanong mo sa dealership.

[speedyfix]

most auto trannies will have between 6-10 liters total capacity. about half will be in the torque converter.
