Hi all first off ive posted on here before about my guages not working and thanks to you all got a swift reply on how to fix them , but there not fixxed i have reflowed the conections hmmm prolly 3 times now they work for about a month and start acting up again . Ok for the secong problem is i can start my car up from go down the road it shifts from low 1 then it takes a little bit to shift form that point to drive and when it does it shifts kinda hard , could it be that the transmission filter maybe dirty and need changed or am i looking at a posible sensor or trans work . Thanks in advance for any info

For the gauge problem, take a look at the actual connections...you may have to bend some to make sure you are getting a good connection.

Have you checked your fluid level lately?

i check the fluids of the engine and transmission on a reagular basis

Have you ever adjusted the bands? Might be time to as well as a fluid and filter change.

ive never worked on a tranmissionn internally so i wouldnt know how to adjust the bands but ill try the fluids/ filter change first sense its the cheapest to do :)

You don't take the transmission apart to adjust the bands. Here, you these two threads....
