Re: [HELP ME] Transmission failure SVX

P-O,

I think you need to re-explain your problems in detail.

1) Are you saying the transmission will not shift into fourth at all? Not even when the selector is in "D" and you lift off the accelerator?

2) In your previous post you said that during a shift the revs go to 4000 and then return to 3000? During all shifts or just 1-2, 2-3 or 3-4? Are you talking about "flaring"? You may want to search that and see if that is what you have.

3) Is your car a "VTD"? On gravel, if you try to spins the tires which tires spin first :-)? Front or rear? If you look from the drivers side, close to where the starter is there should be a sticker on the torque converter housing with a transmission id code. Something like "TZ102Y.....". If the sixth digit is "Y" then you have a VTD transmission. If it is a "Z" then it is an ACT4 transmission.

4) Please explain the braking issue. Are you saying the car "floats" or is hard to control under braking?

Kind regards from Finland,

Tapani
