Gloyale Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 It only has 4 gears. Late shift is the RS shift mapping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevenz61 Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 when in fourth it sounds like it wants to shift, but then the at oil temp light starts flashing, what is shift mapping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 when in fourth it sounds like it wants to shift, but then the at oil temp light starts flashing, what is shift mapping? What do you mean "sounds like" it wants to shift. Does it rev up without going any faster? Or just in very high RPM range? What are the RPMs of the engine at 60 mph?

sevenz61 Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 it sounds like over reving, at 60mph the RPMs are at around 4grand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Sounds like torque converter is not locking. Toghether with Flashing AT Temp light could mean bad lock up solenoid .(B?) Pulll Codes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sevenz61 Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 the temp light flashed twice, so does that mean the solenoids are good and the problem probably lies with the torque converter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 have you checked the fluid? Keep the engine idling on level ground, shift to each individual gear for 10-15 seconds, then to Park. Keep idling, pull the dipstick and wipe it. wait 2 minutes. seriously, wait. Check the level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
