  3. Yes, Do you want one ? Let me know. Is it labor intensive? Is it something I can install myself? How much is it? It is a fairly easy install if your handy with common tools. It takes about 2 hours for a neat install. Are you serious?
  4. Welcome to the club Where in West Allis ? That's my old stomping grounds.

  9. Wow, It's getting interesting. I am beginning to nurture a hope that I will get of cheap this time. I have a question. 1 - Does first-second solenoid control drive engagement? My tranny shifts just fine from 1st to 2nd or any other gear for that matter. 2 - This condition only occurs after the car has not been used for a couple of days. After the first time I put it in drive and it does what I've described, it acts normal the rest of the day and nobody can tell that something is wrong. Again, thanks for your help! The selinoid is sticking when it is cold. Clean and or replace them.
  10. Thanks for the reply. I replace the fluid every year for the past 4 years of ownership. It is quite burnt very time. I know that LS trannys normally burn fluid a little, but mine is beyound normal. In general, I am afraid of going to the dealer. I don't know how dealers are in your neck of the woods, but the ones in NYC are crooks. I wouldn't trust them as far as I can throw them. I may end up in a situation where they will charge me $3-400 just to diagnose the problem and then say that I need my tranny rebuilt - another $2-3K. It does have 180K miles on it after all and it needs some TLC. Drain and fill the tranny every 100 miles until it runs red. Have your mechanic drop the pan and replace the first-second selinoid.

  11. It sounds like a shift selinoid is sticking, Has the tranny fluid ever been changed ? How often ? Bring it to a toyota dealer and have them look at it. 99% sure you do not have to replace the tranny.
  12. RX, You nailed it. Have her go to work and pay for the "upgrade wheels " herself if she needs them SSSOOOOO bad. Kids :chairshot:
