Hi all

I have a question about my transmission (700R4?). When I'm cruising on the highway about 60 or so mph, and I go to gently accelerate, the RPM's rise a little for a short while (half a sec) and then settle down again. Almost as if there is a short slip.

Is this normal operation or a sign of excessive wear?

Many thanks

Matthew

 

Does this happen only if you let off a lil then get back on it?


Sounds like its just your converter unlocking then locking. This is normal.

 

Yeah pretty much. Thanks for clearing that one up. Always paranoid about trans problems...

To save starting another thread I have an exhaust question. Forgive my ignorance but why is my V6 so damn loud? I'm sure when I saw it around before I bought it, it was much quiter. There is some slight corrosion coming through on the welded seam on the rear silencer. Could it have collapsed internally?

Cheers, Matthew

 

could be a hole on top of the muffler.

 

I took a look... looks like my muffler has rotted from the inside. Got a replacement on the way
