Clutch not fully releasing, low of fluid, or synchronizers bad. You may need to adjust the clutch pedal free play.

What causes delayed shifting when trans is cold?

Delayed shifting is because the transmission fluid is not warm enough to move through the internals of the transmission. You may need a transmission service,,,,,fluid change, new filter, etc. Transmission Fluid degrades with age.


Why does the transmission clunk when shifting gears?

Are you sure it is the transmission that is clunking? It could be the u-joints on the drive shaft that are making the noise. When the u-joints on the drive shaft are bad, there is an audble clunk when you accelerate and when slowing down (basically the same motions you go through when shifting gears).


Why a 1991 Honda civic with an auto transmission grinds and won't go into gear when shifting from park into any gear?

There are several reasons as to why a transmission would grind and not shift into gear. The problem could be cumulative therefore the problem could be 1 or a number of issues compounding the problem. The transmission has many valves in it that push transmission oil through. When you shift gears, if the valves are not able to push oil through, the transmission has a difficult time shifting, if it can at all. The transmission also has a magnet in it that essentially picks up small bits of metal that have been grinded by the gears. The constant grinding of the gears does a number of things. First, it wears down the gears leaving a lot of little pieces of metal that are then picked up by the magnet. Through years of wear and tear, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what happend....the gears become worn down. Second, the gears themselves could be slightly bent, meaning they no longer have their perfect form which of course can complicate shifting. Transmission oil change are not always the solution for these types of problems. Often the build up of metal and old oil is what is keeping the transmission together, other times a transmission oil change will allow for a thorough cleaning and flush any build up in the transmission away. I suggest you see a transmission specialist who can determine the best way to go forward.

Why does your 1998 silverado start shifting hard after long periods of driving at speed over 45 until you shut off and start back up again?

Sounds like a bad solenoid. But if it shifts hard from first to second then from second to third but fine when from third to over drive forth but then shifts a little hard when down shifting through the gears if that is the case might need to change transmission filter and fluid sometimes overfilling the transmission with fluid could do this as well.


I have a 1999 Grand Prix GT and when stuck in traffic using the brake a lot or having to brake quickly the car begins to shift gears hard when moving again what is the problem?

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but it is most likely the solenoids in the transmission on their way to pasture. I have been driving through traffic like you and the transmission will intermittently have harsh upshifts, sometimes up to 4 or 5 before shifting to the correct gear (down shifting never had a problem). The transmission in mine finally set a code for the 'b' solenoid stuck closed :( I don't believe it has anything to do with the braking at all, but I'm no mechanic. It was highly recommended that I use the lower gear (2nd) for the engine so the transmission does not shift (in traffic only of course) - this will extend the life of the transmission but not fix the problem. I was told that it is not worth the money to try and figure out what is wrong without a code (tons of money to troubleshoot and they may not find the problem). Until the car sets a code just drive the car nicely, feel the rpms and let off the gas a little then reapply - this will help the transmission shift smoother and extend the life of the transmission (I drove mine for almost two years with the harsh upshift before the solenoid went kaput).

1994 geo prizm transmission fluid leaking and will not go into gear?

The fluid could be too low to allow the transmission to shift. Depending on where the fluid leak is, the leak could be through a bad solenoid or soaking electrical connections, stopping the transmission from shifting.


How do you adjust transmission shifting Suzuki sidekick sport?

To adjust the transmission shifting on a Suzuki Sidekick Sport, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is off. Locate the shift cable adjustment on the transmission, which may involve loosening the cable clamp and sliding it to the desired position for proper engagement. After adjustment, tighten the clamp and test the shifting by moving the gear selector through all positions to ensure smooth operation. If issues persist, consult a professional mechanic for further diagnosis.


How does to much automatic transmission fluid effect shifting patterns through the gears of a 92' 250 ram van?

The fluid will aerate, which will cause slipping, shuddering, etc..


My 1994 ford explorer is running sluggish while driving and the transmission wont change gears unless you take the car up to 2000 to 3000 rpm before it changes can somebody till me what the problem is?

Your transmission is going out... Buy a bottle of Lucas transmission fix, pour it in, make sure you warm the veh. up for at least 15 minutes before driving it, and pray it gets you through till you can get a new one. Not fun!!! I had several explorers with this problem. I was able to drive them all for over a year with the lucas trans fix in it before it went ka-put.
