Is it done?

Hello,

I have a 95 Z28 with about 48,000 on it as of now and I think the tranny might be done. It doesnt shift into second at WOT or any other gear anymore, all it does now is bounce off the rev limiter till I let off. It is also a little hesitant to shift gears when driving normal, and when switching from Reverse to Drive. I do my fair share of racing but for the most part I drive it very civilized, because I feared of something like this happening. this slipping just started right after I replaced my broken tranny mount, I took it for a test drive got on it, and thats when this all started. Is there anything I can do, or is this tranny done? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Mine did the exact same thing. The band started to slip, and eventually broke. It's done.

As long as the fluid level is where it should be, you're most likely seeing early signs of 2-4 band failure.

Thats the band that snapped on mine. First it was a lerching shift, then wouldn't shift at all WOT, then didnt shift period. It would go straight from 1st to 3rd, and never 2nd or 4th.
