First, I'd like to thank everyone who has helped me with my car in the past year on this board.

I bought my 1995 Cutlass Supreme SL in December, 2003.
2 weeks after I got the car, the trans mission went.
4 months later (04/03) the 2nd transmission went 300 miles from home. It cost me $300.00 to have it towed back, and another $1400.00 to have another transmission put in.
Tonight, the transmission went again. I can drive forward with lots of clicking noise, but no reverse gear! The car won't reverse! Yes, transmission #3 went.

Now, I babied that car. In the year I owned it, I put a little under 20,000km (12,500 miles) on the car, and a little over $5000.00 in repairs on that car. Tie-rods, struts, steering bushings, rotors & pads, relays, horn, etc...

The 4T60E transmission is in the 92 ~ 97 Cutlass Supreme, Grand Prix, Buick Regal, and some models of the Grand AM.
After much research, I've come to realize that this was probably the worst transmission GM ever made. There's less problems if the shifter is in the middle console than on the steering column.

So, I'm getting a 2002 Grand Prix GT, and selling the cutlass to the wrecking yard!

Peace to all, and good luck with your Cutlass. May you have better luck than me!

Don't you think you still have warranty on that transmission?

Maybe there's something wrong with your driving...

OH OH...after reading this thread, I thought how sad. Hope I have better luck.

Well,as luck would have it, the tranny on my '95 cutty coupe did just as his this past friday. No reverse and much slipping with major clicking going foward.

It's at a friends tranny shop and will cost about $1300 installed. However, unlike above, this tranny has a lifetime warranty with 1 year labor.

My son my have caused this damage when he got stuck in a snow piled parking lot recently and kept rocking the car from reverse to drive and back. I will not blame him completely. I drive with some spirit myself. However, after this, driving habits will change! (LOL)...75Trump

I love my 3 speed.
