THATS possible if its a Honda or foreign car.some of these models have external soliniods.the transmission fuid is channeled to the solinoids for shifting porposes.and there are seals on the sol.so ya they could leak.there could also be a sensor leaking and not a solinoid and that could be on any vehicle made
A bad transmission solenoid will cause hard shifting and can eventually damage the unit. You should change the solenoid if it is bad.
Transmission is not shifting when car is warmed up.
If the 1997 Nissan Altima with an automatic transmission is shifting gears too early, it could be that the shift solenoid for the transmission is faulty. Both the shift solenoid and the speed sensor on the transmission should be checked.
There are a few types of solenoids in an automobile. The transmission solenoid is responsible for properly shifting the gears in an automatic transmission. The starter solenoid power the starter.
The 1998 Buick Century shift solenoid is located on the top of the transmission. The shift solenoid can be access through the shifting console.
Based on information that is generated within the transmission and other sensors in the engine, the solenoid (or any one of them) controls certain functions of the transmission such as changing gears.
The solenoid is an internal transmission problem. It causes slipping, non-shifting, hard or erratic shifts, overheating,?æas well as loss of one or more gears.?æ
On a 1997 Volkswagen Jetta, the shifting solenoids are situated inside the valve body of the transmission. The valve body is the brain of the transmission.
Bad transmission shift solenoid. Get it replaced as soon as possible to prevent further damages.
Inside the transmission. Remove transmission pan and towards the rear of the transmission there are 2 solenoids.The one on drivers side of vehicle is for 1st to second gear shifting. The one on passenger side is for 2nd to 3rd gear shifting.
Very hard shifting between gears accompanied with a bang. That has been my experience in my Pontiac Montana.
On most modern cars there is a solenoid that triggers when you step on the brake to release the shifter from park. If the lever goes into gear but the transmission does not engage the solenoid is inside the transmission. Any more accurate info requires make, model, year and engine type.
