Re: 1994 Transport Disengaes out of OD

I know this is far late for a reply
i have a 94 i bought new in 93

also bought the 5 year 75k extented warranty

about 16 months old it started not going into overdrive when i was on the road for 30 minutes or so

dealer never coul d find anything (so they say)
then 2 months after the warranty expried
low and behold they say its my transmission and it needs rebuilt

yada yada
did not fix it

2 years later same crap excuse from a transmission shop
another wasted rebuild

FYI
in about 95 or 96 (while still under warranty) GM released a recal
turns out a bad design
coolant lines to the trans. were undersized
when it gets warm it cant cool enough
then locks out the overdrive

so dont pay anyone for a rebuild etc
they just want your money

just upsize the coolant lines and it will fix for most people
