Guys, yesterday I put the tranny on and just bad luck. Please read my other thread try to help me out to diagnose what went wrong in my rebuilt process.

HERE WE GO AGAIN...
 

first of all - happy holidays to everyone!!
5hp-24:gun:
update on my the rebuild(after 25k or so miles):
1) jerking on 1st and 2nd and downshift from 3rd to 1st(i think:dunno:)
2) transfailsafe prog on and off
3) P0732
4) ses on and off

to everyone rebuild the tranny, any problems after?
all i can think of is the "3 pads on the back of B clutch hub"(maybe it got worn out or another gasket?:cussing:)

RRPHIL- need your expertise, thanks in advance!

Check post 93-94 for the pads question. I had the pads problem but not the symptoms you are describing. Check the bearing first.

Holly molly... I cannot believe to took it apart again.

That P0732 code indicates a possible E-clutch problem (i.e. 2nd gear). Might be worth checking that your E-clutch piston

doesn’t have a split in it

and that its O-ring seals are okay?

My auto gearbox was rebuilded 2 times in 150k miles, the first rebuild at ca. 95 k miles was good for 25k miles, the last one could also last just 20k miles or 1,5 years.

Old Tread, but i need to ask this:

How many bolts the tranny housing has? i got 9 bolts, (the 2 for the starter are not included) , asking as i need to know in top there are 2 smaller head screws ,and my question is , is there another screw there? for some reason i cant pull the tranny out.

Thanks,

(hope that is okay to re-open the tread after all this time)
