auto tranny work

mizuboi · 12-12-2006, 05:56 AM

hey my girlfriend's 89 won't move i think her clutch is gone but i'm not sure we are selling the car right now and i want to know how hard is it to fix this compared to the manual tranny because i can do manual fine but auto i don't know about because of the extra parts like torque converter also would i need a new torque converter and how much owuld these parts be? i just need an oem swap so we can get more money for the car rather than just like 700

just read it

i'm selling my girlfriend's car but the car won't run because the clutch is shot its gone won't work and if we can fix this problem i might be able to get more money or keep it but i need to know information about auto tranny's because i can work with manual tranny's just fine but i have no knowledge about auto other than it has valves and torque converters and such

no man, what he means is it doesnt makesense what ur saying. there is no clutch in automatic automobiles, only in standard ones.

thats the stuff i need to know like what it takes for a automatic transmission to slip like the engine is fine but there is no movement in teh car so i need to konw what to replace or fix in an automatic so i'm guessing its a torqueconverter then?

Well first of all what happened do you no for a fact? Was it slipping? does the car start? maybe it isnt the transmission try pushing and holding the shift knobe up foward if heard of somepoeple have a problem starting there autos and this would make the car start. But if you think it is they tranny you can probly pick one up at autozone or somthing for like less then a grand then you get the core charge or just rebuild the one you got with will got you like 2000 dallors.

And as far as i no automatics have clutches to you just dont engage them the car does it on its own

I would defenitly tow it to a transmission shop before just selling it it might be an easy fix
