fuganator Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 so i took my truck to my local gm dealer to get my tranny looked at because it was not shifting from first and when it was it wasn't shifting till like 40 mph. I brought it in, the tranny guy there put it on the lift. He pulled the pan off and 3rd gear and alot of other stuff was laying in the bottom of my tranny. It is all gonna be waranteed. Thank god. any thoughts on why it would do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan06SS Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Wow... great dealer if they'll warranty with the supercharger... that would most definitely be the cause of the problem. Big HP + 4l65e = BOOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuganator Posted January 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Yeah these guys are sweet. Is there a way to not have this happen again? I had a zippy kit, but I am thinking I need more internals. Not sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealth03ss Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 WOW i cant believe you found a place to fix that for you. I was already told they wouldnt fix anything else on my truck after they fixed my steering shaft and test drove it. The service manager said the truck shifted extremely hard and would soon fall apart. When it does, we wont fix it is what he said. Meaning my shift kit was a bit obvious....Im far from supercharged!

fuganator Posted January 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 I just want to know how I can fix this so it doesn't happen again. I don't think just a zippy shift kit is the answer. What else do I need??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

detjoe Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 benkey/zippy put together a list of hard parts that go inside, do a search-better yet call the trans man himself, I know he will be able to give you a list or help source them. it was too technical for me to keep up with w/o any power adders to help break my trans...

fuganator Posted January 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 They got my truck all put back together and took it for a test drive. The truck upshifts fine when you accelerate, but if you want to downshift, it doesn't want to go into gear . So the mechanic is gonna rip it apart and try to figure out what is going wrong.
