Read through a lot of the threads dealing with the 2 problems. So yes, I did search, but still have a few questions.
First off: 2000 GP GT 3.8 of course. Bought the car w/ 175,000 miles.
Currently pushing 177k
Replaced radiator, collant, hoses, tranny filter and fluid, TPS, plugs, wires, coils, HUBs, and a myriad of other things.
I decided to change the filter and fluid, even though the fluid looked fresh. It was shifting hard after warmed. I mean banging into gear. Also, at WOT, or even close to WOT, it slips in and out of gear. Sort of like you put the hammer down, let off real fast, and hammer down again.
2 different problems? I hear to change the pressure solenoid, but if the tranny is slipping and needs replaced or rebuilt, then I should just wait.
Opinions? I am clueless when it comes to transmissions.
EDIT- I also hear a "whine" almost like a power steering pump whine. I can hear it in park when reving the motor a little or in drive while cruising. (not as noticable) Sounds likeit is more noticeable on the drivers side?
