Re: question about a "shifty" auto trans 200 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be Stefan on  Thu Dec 7 19:14 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I have to second that check ball thing - my 1987 745 has the AW71 tranny and was peeling rubber when it shifted from 1-2. it was a lot of fun showing off to the neighbor kids. anyhow, winter is here and I didn't want to fishtail every time the thing shifted, so I bought the parts (about $40) and paid a good tranny shop about $135 to do the labor on it. it shifts like new now.

The check ball thing may not be your problem, but in my car the thing would peel rubber 100000 miles ago if youreally tried, then it eventually got so bad that it would do it all the time. hence the nylon wearing out and finally passing thru the orfice that it was "checking"

anyhow, hope that helps.

Stefan
