    trans leaking fluid from bellhousing...

    thats what i firsts thought, but i was told there is no seal in the front, the only seal is in the back. the dealer said it may be a pump??? i didnt kno a trans had a pump :shrug: would this be a warranty issue?

    New trans, same problems

    ok, i will check everything middle of next week. i have to swap out my mid pipe for the stock one for the damn smog. guess thats the price for O/R Xpipe lol. are there specific torque ratings for the mount bolts? or just as hard as i can turn with a 1/2"drive ratchet? thanks for all the help.

    New trans, same problems

    the car is a 2002, so it has the 3650. i forgot to add that when im pulling into a parking spot with the clutch in and the shifter in neutral position i hear some slapping around from what sounds like to be the trans. the tech said he heard it from the rear end, but to me it sounds like under...

    I had a new trans put in after my original one locked up on me, and now this one is doing the same thing. if i am cruising in 2-5th gear around 2000rpm and i let off the throttle i can hear and see the trans move. if i tap the gas @ 2000 rpm in any gear 2-5 the whole car rocks back and forth...

    19.5 Volts from battery....

    are you sure its the alternator and not the battery? i thought if the battery was bad then the car had to rely on the power from the alternator, and at higher rpms the output from the alternator is higher = brighter lights and so forth? that sucks, alternators are a pretty penny...

    fuel gauge tipsey

    OK, i already stated that im ok with that fact that it drops as the gas depletes, but whats with the jumping between "LOW FUEL" AND 1/4 tank in less then a few seconds while stopped???

    fuel gauge tipsey

    im not too concerned about the speed at which it moves, im mostly bothered by the needle bouncing back and forth between 1/4 and E. it moves as if you are adding and removing electricity from it. it can bounce back and forth in less than a second sometimes while im sitting still.

    fuel gauge tipsey

    Proud owner of a 2002 gt, but my fuel gauge is acting wierd. the first 40-50 miles i drive the needle is in the full position, but by the time i hit about 65-70 miles it is just in front of the 3/4 mark, and the rest of the tank it takes me about 40-50 miles between 1/4's. but, at the last 1/4...

    why does my car starts without keys in the ignition

    do you have the remote start option on your car? i just replaced the alternator in my friends truck and when i screwed in the terminals the truck started without the key. we just needed to press the remote start button on the key chain once the battery was connected and it works fine now.
