standard or automatic? If automatic need to do line pressure test but common cause is the pressure control solenoid
It engages the band witch makes your tranny shift into gear.
Could be your shifter cable has stretched and you need to replace it? On my 1995 Saturn SL2 I could not keep the shifter in 3rd gear. I replaced the tranny with one from the junkyard and the problem still persisted. I talked to Saturn and they said it was my shifter cable. I installed the shifter cable and the new tranny goes into 3rd gear without any problems. Please use this as an FYI. It was time consuming and expensive to replace the shifter cable, but a lot less expensive than the tranny. Hopefully it is something simpler for you.
manual tranny's take gear oil not tranny fluid. you need to get all that fluid out and fill the tranny with 80/90 weight gear oil
revers gear is the first indication that your tranny is bad if you can go ahead put cant revers get to tranny shop good luck jack
well the vibrating is caused from many things first chech your tires make sure their balanced and wearing normal if its not that then its most likely you cv joints or u joints but the problem with the tranny is cause your driving a Saturn
It would, if you changed out the trans and the ecm/tcm. The SL2 SC2 transmissions have a different higher reving gear ratio.
if its an automatic theres either no fluid, low fluid, a blown tranny, or its not really in gear, and if its stick shift, could be clutch, fluid if hydraulic or again blown tranny or in either case a broken axle on either side will not allow the car to move.
The "PWR" button allows the tranny to shift at higher RPMs & downshift quicker. Makes a big difference when passing on the highway. The "2nd" button makes the vehicle start in 2nd gear so tires don't break free in the muck or snow.
When was the lasttime you checked your tranny fluid? You might have fried your tranny.
try the shift sensor on the side of tranny
its acruising gear on all fords whether manual or auto so you save gas and your tranny goes into a higher gear, less torque on tranny
there is a plug on the side of the tranny that u take out. the level should be even with this plug
