|
|
I just purchased a 96 LS and I havent even been able to put 2k miles on it and the car is starting to have problems. It all started on the highway about two days ago, it was a total trafic jam and I stopped the car and couldn't get into any gear, 1st to reverse. I got the car home creeping, and slamming gears sinse that is the only way it wanted to get in and I got it home, I drove it around the block and it seemed fine, then I drove it to the bank and it started again can't shift into any gear. With the car off the trans shifts fine, but on the car on it will not shift out of neutral. If I start the car up with the car in gear the car shakes violently like a motor mount is broken (but it's not), but that's what it sounds like to me. And when I do start the car in gear I can't get it out. I'm not in a hurry to condem the trans and to me it seems like clutch related the car does have 100k. Am i crazy or is it just me!!!!
PS and I did bleed the clutch line too no change! |

| sorry i drive a 91, and its mechanical, so you can adjust the engagement, since its hydraulic you probably have a problem with the pressure plate, but like everyone says, its the clutch, go get the whole thing replaced |
