If it is automatic and it grinds, that means you must come to a complete stop before shifting into reverse, or your transmission is no good
Yes it is. Any Metro transmission made after the year 1994 will fit in your 98 Metro.
TH125 three speed.
Have you ever changed the fluid and filter in the transmission? If not, that's the first thing you should try.
Sounds like it needs new friction parts internally. Find a good shop.
Sell '91 Metro manual. Purchase '91 Metro automatic. You'll be less than $500 out of pocket which is a lot less than a serviceable automatic will cost.
It isn't possible. You'll need to have the transmission rebuilt.
if the engines that they came off of are the same it should work
If you are talking about an automatic transmission, it is under the removable pan at the bottom of the trans. Drain the oil and remove the pan, you'll see. Mr Geo Metro leehduncan@verizon.net
For all automatic transmissions you add fluid through the dipstick tube.

Remove the transmission dipstick and insert a funnel into the metal tube. Be careful you don't over fill though.
