Re: hard up shift into 2nd
How many miles? Has the tranny fluid ever been changed? Sometimes those problems are caused by sticking or failing shift solenoids and the fluid change solves the problem. As a last shot before dropping the valve body you might try some Lucas TransFix. I'm not much of a believer in additives to alleviate a mechanical problem, but they do have their place.
FWIW YMMV |
