Last year I was having transmission issues throwing codes, getting put into limp mode, etc. Local transmission shop quoted me $2800 for a rebuild so i ended up swapping in a used lower mile transmission from a same...

    NV3550 fluid change (is it full?)

    I couldn't find anyone specifically talking about this, although I've read many threads on the forum and they've been hugely useful - so thanks to everyone here. I changed the transmission fluid in my TJ today ('03 with manual NV3550). I used the Redline MTL 75W80 as suggested here. Using a...

    32RH Transmission Options - crack

    Hi all, I'm not sure where to post - my '97 4.0 auto has the 32rh transmission, I think. I'm trying to see if there are any reliable websites to purchase a core, a core outer shell, or whole trans to replace my slightly cracked one. Front driveshaft ujoint blew up next to the thread where the...

    42RLE Transmission Replacement Research

    After 170k miles, and some hard wheeling, my transmission has all the problems, and needs to be replaced. I'm removing and replacing the transmission myself, so it's a bench job for a local shop. I have a '05 TJ, stock drive train, SYE, and a 4" lift on 35" tires. I did a bunch of research and...

    1999 30RH trans help

    1999 wrangler 2.5 30RH trans. I drove it a hour away and it did fine then all of a sudden it felt like it stumbled a time or two and quit pulling. You can turn it off and back on and it’ll pull and grind for a few seconds then nothing. No gear or 4WD combo will pull so I’m assuming it’s in the...

    Noise coming from what sounds like transmission

    So I’m not exactly sure if it was high gear or low gear it was either the number (1) or number (2) below drive on my auto shift console. I am unsure because the face plate hasn’t been there for a number of years. Anyways, I haven’t driven it in a while and one day it felt like it popped out of...

    42RLE no issues, but a snapped snap ring.

    Howdy folks, I decided to service my trans yesterday. Not because I was having issues, but because I haven't done it in the years I've owned the jeep and I felt like it was a good idea. The fluid smelled good and had a nice red color to it. Not burnt or stinky like I've smelled in bad...

    Mixing ATF +4 and ATF type F in a pinch?

    Hey everyone. New here sorry if this question isn’t in the right place. Yesterday I replaced the radiator on my 04 sport and the hose clamp at the bottom failed causing about 3 quarts of trans fluid to spill all over the road and I lost the ability to go into gear.

    Having trouble with the 42rle transmission. Should I rebuild it?

    My jeep is starting to show symptoms of a bad transmission. It shudders whenever it enters overdrive and shifts rough after warming up. It's currently throwing a p700 and p1294 code, but I'm not sure the p1294 code is related to the transmission. I've checked for vacuum leaks but haven't found...

    Searching for Solution to Rattle Noise

    Hey all, so I’ve got an issue I’m trying to diagnose and so far all I’ve got is that it’s got to be a clutch issue and it could also be steering column related. Not really an issue when I first start rolling but after I get where I’m going and I turn into a parking spot in 1st or 2nd and...

    Upshift light coming on in an automatic

    I bought an 02 Sahara 4.0 automatic. When driving the upshift indicator (yellow up arrow) on the dash comes on when it’s shifting gears… when I get to I guess the last gear around 40mph the arrow comes on and off and on and off a few times over a few seconds and it feels like the jeep is trying...
