4l60e

[jodymills]

i have a 1995 camaro ss with the 4L60E transmission it comes out of the lock up and it goes into neautral all the time untill i give it some gas then it shifts to the third gear then it will shift back into the overdrive but just for a second what can i do and could it be a selanoid problem.

please don't guess at this,the 4l60 has a problem with the 3-4 clutch,they wear out ,

 

you can check this yourself by doing something that sounds odd but hear me out.

 

you have to feel each shift ,1-2-3-4 lock up ,and doing it with the shifter manually is another way also ,if the shit to 3rd flares to neutral,there ya go,clutch is done ,

 

to feel the TC clutch disengage ,maintain throttle,observe the tach and touch the brake pedal,those old 60's are not as soft as todays TCC and the tach will jump up slightly say 200 RPM.

 

anyway ,thats all you can do to check ,but a road test with a tranny guy that KNOWS the 60 is what you should do

 

changing the oil will NOT repair it.

 

if you get it rebuilt ,have the shop flush the cooler ,GM machine also mearsures the flow rate thru the cooler ,i know , GM needs those numbers for warranty purposes as plugged coolers blow up trannies

 

Gm sells a rebuilt tranny and has a very nice 3 yr warranty,or he can rebuild yours and has a 1 yr warranty

 

good luck
