Why does my Monte Carlo shift hard to second gear?

Why does my Monte Carlo shift hard to second gear?

Our technicians tell us that partial dis-assembly of the transmission is necessary to replace a failed pressure control solenoid. had the transmission fluid and filter changed in my 2000 monte carlo now it hesitates and shifts hard from drive to 2nd gear only.HELP PLEASE. Starting at a stop light, it jumps from first into second. Like a slip.

What’s the problem with my Chevy Monte Carlo?

Studders when shifts bangs and lost power up hill. Just started had fluid and screen changed 2 months ago no problems 4 th time filter changed since new. X Wife had transmission flushed, sand that pushes all the clutch debris through out the transmission and clogs the shifting plate inside the transmission.

Why did my pressure solenoid go out on my Monte Carlo?

The pressure solenoid went out on my monte at 88500 miles. shifting became erratic and eventually it failed to shift at all. complete rebuild had to be accomplished due to over pressures screwing everything else up. Hard shifting. Smooth at takeoff but hesitates to go in gear after stopped.

Is there a problem with my Monte Carlo transmission?

I have a 2001 Chevy monte carlo ss. I have never had problems with my transmission until now. When I first start it up it shifts great and accelerates great. After about 30 minutes of driving it starts to shift hard in first and second gear. It is when I come to a complete stop and then start to accelerate it shifts hard when first starting off.

When does a Monte Carlo start to shift hard?

After about a 1/2hr or so, the car would begin to shift ‘hard’. If you shut off the car, then turn it on after a couple of hours all ‘seems’ ok… until the transmission fluid gets hotter and is thinner and POW! Hard shifting… Double check your transmission fluid level (check after the car has been running for at least 15 minutes or so).

What kind of sound does a Monte Carlo make?

I have a 2002 Monte Carlo SS with 135K miles. Ever since it had about 20K miles on it you could hear a ticking or tapping sound after it warms up. Sound is only noticeable at idle.

Why does my Chevy Impala shift so slow?

What was the rear gear ratio for the Monte Carlo?

Q: What was the rear gear ratio for the SS? For 1983 and 1984 Monte Carlo SS’s, the rear differential ratio was 3.42:1 for 1985 through 1988 Monte Carlo SS’s, the rear differential ratio was 3.73:1 There were no other gear combination options available.

What was the limited slip differential on a Monte Carlo?

Some sources indicate limited slip was not available in 1984, however, some 1984 SSs have shown up with the G80 RPO code. Limited Slip Differential was not available in 1983. Q: What was the rear gear ratio for the SS?

What happens when you reset the transmission shift points?

It is not going to make your shifting abnormal. If your gear shifts are abnormal you have something else going on. Resetting the transmission shift points makes the transmission the same as when the car is out of the factory. Within 30 driving cycles, the ECU will monitor your driving habits and adapt the shifting points to your driving style.
