I know just enough about cars to be dangerous, but it sounds like you have an issue with your clutch.

thanks lol

Harley, if your tranny is slipping you can try a bottle of Lucas transmission additive. You can get at any auto store and have the tech put it for you. You can't bleed a tranny,LOL only the brakes can be bleed. The additive is only a temp fix if your tranny is really worn out you'll need a new one or a new car. Do not go to Cottman or any other big name transmission shops, they will rip you off big time.

hey there i forgot to tell u its a standard will that still work

Then it's your clutch that needs replacing. Not a real expensive repair. I have a mechanic friend on the northshore but he only works for cash.

you need to take it to a transmission shop,they will give you a free estimate,it either needs a clutch kit,slave cylinder,or it might have a clutch master cylinder,since you stated that you blead it.but find you a cheap mechanic to fix it,transmission shops will rape you

hope ya get it fixed babe!

Anything having to do with a transmission is going to BE a mission to fix! I am pretty mechnically inclined, but that is out of my realm!

Aggco off coursey is a good place to take it I think they treat you pretty fair.

u were right... i now have a rental but have to get it fixed.... plz email his number txs

Thanks sweetheart... very sexy btw

First off what kind of car do you have? year, make and model, and is it an Automatic or a manual Transmission? Typically if your transmission is slipping which means the engines revs up high before gear change and it's happening in a Automatic Transmission the problem can be a Clutch Pack, Fluid Pressure Sensor or something wrong with the electronics located in the Valve Body. If your Transmission is Manual Could be the clutch, Tensioner, or Synchronizer gear. I won't quote ya ant prices because I don't do Transmission work. But expect about a 300.00 fee to take out your transmission and diagnose the problem if you have the shop do the work they usually give you a break on that fee and add it into the total cost, each shop varies. Now another tip, GO TO A SHOP THAT DOES NOTHING BUT TRANSMISSION WORK. Why because it takes one hell of a guy to repair, rebuild or install a transmission, especially automatics. If you go to a shop that does an array of mechanic work and they say yea we do some transmission work and they quote you a low price thats what you'll get low price shanty work and in about 30 60-days you'll need a wrecker to tow your car to the shop again. Go to a very reputable Transmission Shop. Ask around, look around check the internet for reviews on various shops. Ball park figure if you need a Total rebuild on your transmission it can range from 1200-2500 bucks. Another tip if you need replacement parts. If you have a GM or Ford Vehicle ask if they use Borg Warner or Transgo after market parts they are rated quite reliable. So hope I've helped ya. Let me know what goes on ok.
