Tranny trouble '02 SC2
I just brought my '02 SC2 into the shop last week for broken motor/trans
mount. I have a heavy foot and could feel it. Techs said they also tested the tranny and found that I needed a trans valve body too. They replaced the the valve body assembly (failed pressure test), TAM and lower trans mount. Now the car jerks when I let off the accelerator and I can feel trans shift hard not violently hard, just sloppy) or feel almost like it's slipping when I go from 1st or 2nd to 3rd gear (auto trans) , it just isn't smooth, especially at slower speeds. The techs said that the tranny will take some time to adjust. How long does it actually take and should I have to endure a sh*tty ride for a week? I have been taking it easy on the car since, even disconnected the battery after 5 days to reset everything and let it relearn, but still no good. It goes back in the shop tomorrow, but I hope I havent damaged anything driving 72 miles a day for a week like this. Should they be rechecking the mounts as well as the trans valve body assy? Thanx, marx404 |

No shifting delay before. The tech IMHO is an idiot, scratched up my new AEM
intake pipe removing the PCM. I dont trust his work, having another tech check it out. The main complaint was the motor / tranny mounts. I have disconnected the battery a few times and driven softly to allow the PCM / tranny to relearn. Tonight I noticed it was a little smoother, although the shifts between 2nd and 3rd (auto trans) are hard at times even when I gently accelerate from a red light. marx404 |

Had the car back in the shop yesterday, they did a complete reset. One thing
that may have messed things up, was I had an AEM intake on at the time. I have since reverted back to total OEM and they reset everything, so far, all is much smoother. Perhaps the intake was fooling with the learning process? I'll drive it for a few days and see. marx404 |
