bobjr Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 So hey guys my truck went in the shop last night because as i pulled out of the gas station i heard a muffled kaboom and then had no forward gears i still have reverse though. LOL So my question is this first off who was it that found the good TB convertor for 150.00? Also how would i go about asking the service writter to put in the TB convertor for me while it is apart? I dont want him to like red flag my truck or anything. Also what else should i have done to the tranny while it is in there? Anyone know how much a full zippy kit cost with vette servos?

haynss Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 uncle vince found the cheap convertor, however i dont think you will get that same price. zippy shift is about $2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonmalibuss Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Just give them the part # and see if they will be willing to install that converter or buy it from them and see if they will be willing to put it in for ya thats what I did and they had no problem with installing it. Just make sure they give you the stock conveter back so you will have it for warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobjr Posted May 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Ailright so i got the truck back from the shop the other day and as my luck goes i didnt make it far. They put in a rebuilt tranny because they said that my output shaft twissted and broke. Then i picked it up from the shop and drove it home about 15 min drive and parked it for the night cause it was raining and I wouldnt have time to truely test it in the rain. So the next afternoon i go to the bank and all the sudden it acted like it was slipping or it was stuck in 2nd or 3rd, and the check engine light came on not long after. So i took it to the dealership and they said it was a bad pressure swith in the tranny! Ok so i left it with them again. The next day i come to pick it up again and it does the same thing over again so i take it back again and they tell me that for some reason my computer is going into open loop even when it is at operating temp. GRRRR~! So they load updates and all in the comp along with 05 programing I think. Then the truck wont start. They say it is out of gas but it isnt so they sent me off for the weekend in another rental. DAMN IT WHAT COUOLD BE WRONG!!>?>> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonmalibuss Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Sounds like the truck didn't like the 05 program. GM should have put a much better trans in these trucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
