    Lockup issues?

    ***SOLVED*** ***UPDATE*** I replaced the torque converter and it holds lockup perfectly fine, and no more whining now. Even with a shop and a couple buddies arguing with me weather the noise was from the pump or converter i went with my gut and replaced the converter only. Solved the issue. And...

    Lockup issues?

    I finally got around to dropping the pan today. Fluid was clean, and still a good color. Magnet wasnt a big ball of fine metal. But the filter looked nasty. Im kinda wanting to blame the “whine” on the torque converter though. Only because the whine is non existent in park and neutral. But im...

    Lockup issues?

    Noticed today a whine i believe is coming from the trans. Only seems to whine in forward gears. No whine at all with any rpm in park and neutral. Almost sounds like a power steering pump whine but like i said only in gear with acceleration. In gear foot on brake at a stop no whine… im getting...

    Heater issue?

    I did bleed the system, it got a new radiator at the same time. And didnt have issue with the heat until i replaced the climate controls, blower motor, and resistor. But ever since monday morning it blows good and hot so who knows whats goin on i havent changed anything.

    Heater issue?

    Whatever is “factory reccomended” is what the genuises at autozone gave me. And they talked me into this “failsafe” brand. Supposedly if it fails at all it will stick open no matter what. Think I should change it out?

    Heater issue?

    After i drove it to work this morning i am wanting to blame the heater core. Ill try flushing it and if it makes it better ill order a new one. I started it to let it warm up for about 15-20 minutes went to leave and it was still blowing slighlty warm air. Hopped on the highway to work and it...

    Heater issue?

    Not sure on brand ordered it on amazon. Ill give it a shot but i have doubts since they all do there job, air goes where its told to, it changes from cold to “luke warm” and the recirculate works good too.

    Heater issue?

    i havent tried the old resistor ill give it a shot though. And the old panel doesnt do anything at all now. Before the blower would blow on high with the ignition on no matter what. now the blower does nothing at all with the old one on any setting. Weird.

    Heater issue?

    1998 5.7 2 door tahoe. When i got this thing the blower motor was stuck on high. Not many complaints since its winter but obviously i wanted it functional. So i ordered a new “climate control panel”. And threw a new blower motor and resistor in with it just to since there cheap parts. The heater...

    Lockup issues?

    Tps made no difference. I also ran the codes again and this time the tps code wasnt there? Who knows. If i can find the time this weekend ill try to throw the tcc valve “upgrade” in and see if that fixes it.

    Hmm, so in 3rd it gets into lockup and doesnt have an issue staying in at the typical speeds 4th cant hold lockup. Weird. At least when i get goin 60+ in 4th it holds lockup perfectly fine. Uphill and all.

    Lockup issues?

    No 9 times out of 10 it shifts smooth as butter although ive noticed here and there it will shift kinda hard out of 1st but its pretty rare. Also if i put the shifter in “3” it will shift 1st-4th and not use lockup at all. Thats what ive been doing once i hit the backroads where i live. Out here...

Im guessing the p1345 is from when i did the lower i take gasket last week. Its ran great since so i thought everything was...

    Lockup issues?

    Ive never had one repeatedly go in and out at a steady speed before. When its goin in and out of lockup over and over i can hear the rpm and see it come out of lockup and go up about 200 rpm and back in dropping about 200 rpm and it doesnt stop as long as im holding a steady speed. But i did...
