He seems to be an excellent mechanic, within his limits. He operates in Florida, so he isn't very experienced in dealing with large amounts of serious rust. He is not a welder, he is not a machinist, as we saw when he tried to deal with the broken bolt on the subaru. To be fair, "can you remove a broken bolt" is an economic question more than a technical one. If the object is valuable enough, it can be removed.

26:11 had the EXACT same thing happen in an old 4.0 WJ, including starting out in 2nd gear. It ended up being a little plastic pressure sending unit located on the valve body in front of the filter. Replaced it and the missing reverse when cold and the starting out in 2nd instantly went away. Not sure if his XJ has the same trans, and I’m assuming you guys swapped the trans out by now, but something to think about next time you encounter this issue.

My car is a 2006, 2.5L 5cyl, 5 spd manual. 289,000 miles, and still on the factory clutch. With the bigger wheels and tires I could feel the clutch having to work harder. Vws are expensive and hard to work on. I didn't want to replace the clutch just because the wheels looked really awesome on the car.

I have the same model Jeep and I love it. I bought it knowing it would need a trans as it would start in 2nd/3rd gear. I priced a junkyard transmission and included that mentally in my costs for the vehicle. Then I discovered that I could manually shift to 1st then to 2nd and 3rd with no problems. Reverse worked fine too. I figured when it quit I would put in a transmission. That was about 5 years ago and it still works fine as long as I shift it myself (and down shift at stops). Who needs automatic shift anyway? Ha Ha. Try it, you'll like it!

@hestheMaster Жыл бұрын

At 300,000 plus miles the whole trans system should be looked at since if one part goes bad that's it guys; newish trans will be needed since it is missing 1st gear.

The AW-4 in your Jeep is well known to be virtually indestructible and replacement is rare unless it has been heavily abused. However, they do have solenoid hang-up issues when the fluid changes have been neglected. You may want to look into a solenoid issue and give it a full flush before replacing the transmission. They are relatively inexpensive.

I have yet to see a transmission suddenly start working properly after changing the filter and fluid. If anything, I have found changing the fluid removes what is left of any grit the bands were using to function and the new fluid causes even more slip to the point the transmission no longer functions at all. Kinda like using engine flush on an old worn out engine . Suddenly it becomes a smoking bomb due to flushing out the carbon and goo that was actually helping control oil leakage past the rings. I have experienced both in the past and nothing good becomes of it. I hate changing engines and transmissions any more.

You and me both brother. My days of R&R'ing automotive transmissions and junkyard engines are o-v-e-r! No more for me, had all the fun that I could possibly have. No thank you very much!
