Crupper Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 The auto transmission on my AWD 90 Loyale shudders and shakes in first and second real bad when I start up from a stop. Has anybody else have this problem? Checked the fluid level and it was OK. Crupper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex C Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 sounds like clutch chatter. its not good, look for a swap or a rebuild. I could be wrong, but Ive been fearing that sound myself for many years. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crupper Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 Bad news. Does the transmission come out by it's self or do you have to take the transaxle too?

calebz Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Bad news. Does the transmission come out by it's self or do you have to take the transaxle too?Crupper Not sure exactly what you mean by that, but pullung a soob tranny is like pulling a RWD tranny with the exception of having to disconnect the front axles If you are doing the clutch, IMO, its easier to pull the motor than the tranny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary[/quote] Where would be a good place to start looking for a good Auto trannie? "1990 Loyale AWD 5 dr wagon w/EA82 MPI Turbo", and what years will fit?

bushbasher Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I'm guessing your transmission is the 4 speed auto with full time 4wd? Or is there a pushbutton for 4wd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHATBRAT Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 So it doesn't vibrate while in park or at highway speed? Are you sure it's the trans and not the driveshaft out of balance or even a wheel out of balance? Harmonic balancer (Is it the engine?) Maybe a bad axle? (I had one that shook the front end until I built up speed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crupper Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 I'm guessing your transmission is the 4 speed auto with full time 4wd? Or is there a pushbutton for 4wd? It is a 3 speed auto and a fuse for AWD, It has a push button to hold 1st gear. Been thinking that it does it more in AWD than 2WD. The drive line checks out OK, and the tires are all the same size, thinking it might be in the tranfer case doing something when it is in AWD. I'm replacing both front axles today, as the boots were shot for some time. I'm running out of options, checking the internet I can't find any rebuilt trannies for this model and so far no good ones from a wrecking yard. Everyone I talk to says "You don't have problems with this tranmission, there bullet proof" so I'm looking elsewhere. Open for any ideas from any one.
