    tranny shuddering..ideas?

    In reply to Skymarshal i don't believe that's the problem. just recently i was driving and slowed down out of OD from 65 to 35 and then i sped back up and it didn't want to go back into OD then a second later it did. haven't had that problem before and it hasn't occurred since. to...

    tranny shuddering..ideas?

    All right here it is, I'm sorry bout the music I totally wasn't thinking about it. You can definitely hear the shuddering I'm talking about, put headphones on and turn it up. you'll hear the rattling in the back. @20-24secs <embed id="VideoPlayback"...

    tranny shuddering..ideas?

    yes the guy took it for a test drive he said he took it into od then dropped to neutral then back to OD, he said if it when have been the torque converter he would have majorly felt it. the guy owns a 96 mustang auto, and a 04 and 09 gt. and as for his time sheet i don't know, wouldn't you think...

    tranny shuddering..ideas?

    Bullit Rims

    I don't know if you have looked at AmericanMuscle.com but they have some good buys on their rims. As a matter of fact I was looking at a set of them, and tires for which you can get for 850$. Along with free shipping makes it a good deal. That or you can look on craigslist or ebay and find some...

    tranny shuddering..ideas?

    It looks like it might be the Torque converter. I'm still going to have the shop look at it. but from what I have read 95% of the time its the TC. I have gotten some quotes to have it replaced along with fluid and new filter, first shop wanted 900 (my cars cost) and the next wanted 450 for...

    tranny shuddering..ideas?

    This may seem very repetitive in this forum. But When I bought the car the only problems it had shifting was when it went into OD the rpms went high then dropped. Lately if I gas the car then it shudders, mind you the speed still increases but it shudders really hard. If I ease off when I feel...

    Paint and dent repair- Suggestions? ""Houston people""

    Hey is there anyone in the Houston area on this website that knows of a reputable body and paint shop? I've gotten some quotes for getting the dent out of my quarter panel and they seem to hit 550 and above. Well at least that's what Macco said they'd do it for. But honestly, I don't trust them...

    Head Gasket

    Hi all, No mine hasn't blown....y...e...t I've been doing some research on head gaskets for my car. I read that on the 94-95 mustangs, windstar, and Taurus the gaskets they used were no longer made out of espestos, and they experimented with a new material. I was wanting to know what it...

    the rpms never go down, one time a few days back i put it in reverse and the rpms dropped to 500 but didn't die. Going from 3rd to 4th gear when its cold is sometimes a bit slow, i mean it doesn't slip but u do feel a slight bump. If and when i fix the 02 sensor, and that isnt the prob how...

    Im sitting here reading my haynes manual, and the only P-codes (OBD2) that look anything like the one I got is P0131- Upstream heated 02 sensor circuit low voltage (bank1). I guess Ill just replace it and see if it goes away. Do I need to order one or can I just go somewhere and pick it up...

    Yes I did spray it down already. I spread the inner tunnel 15 times as per the directions on the can. I did unbolt it from the front plastic piece but it didn't get me anywhere because the screen was still attached. "Spray in the backside where the screen would normally be" for mine its...

    to Mustang 5.0 yeah thats the seal. I did fill up the car drove it around no leaks from that seal. In any case I got the CEL Number and its a misfire "on bank 1" due to 4 things some sort of vacuum leak, dirty fuel injectors,engine mechanical problem, and 1 other that didn't sound right. the guy...

    gas mileage

    Your conclusion makes the most sense. I went driving around on 1/4th tank and i got 25 mpg or so (did the math). When I fill up the gas tank it seems to go down much quicker. But right now its lasting longer. I went and looked at what you referred to on the car and i poured gas in, no leaks...
