Car Maintenance : Symptoms of Low Transmission Fluid

[midgetking101]

my 05 chrysler sebring, 72k miles, when i park it on a hill (the engine towards the top) and let it sit for about 2 hrs while i work when i turn the key it takes it a while to turn over and start and when i drive it it wont shift from 1st to 2nd gear (its automatic) bc it hits a rev limiter type thing at about 2,100 rpm but once it gets back down to 2,000 rpm it accelerates again until it hits 2,100 rpm and it creates a jerking motion... if i let the car idle for about 3 mintues it works fine.

Great video! That helped me out alot, Considering I was flipping out thinking that my transmission has blown, I guess I will see. I'm going to get fluid now. Wish me luck =]

Hi jusjan426,

I had the transmission fluid changed recently and the filter serviced, but the outcome still remain the same but not as worse as before that i had to wait for about 3-4mins. [now it's only in a min : ) My mechanic told me the same thing - damages in the gearbox and need overhaul. To repair this it's will cost me a hole in the pocket. I donno whether the problem is cause by me driving using 'overdrive'-low gear all this while. Anyway, Thanks very much for your opinion & advise.

[jusjan426]

did you check the fluid level in the transmission, because if its so low, it might not be able to move at all like you said, and if thats the case you might have damaged the governor too.

[H0L4N6]

Hi, I've a Serena C23 and having problem on the gear especially when it's shifted to Drive, it wouldn't move. The car will only move after 3-4mins. The rest of the gear is fine. Had done diagnosing & scanning on the gearbox, result is good. Need your help to rectify, please. Thanks
