oldbike49 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 sorry if this gets old!!95 legacy lsi wagon,auto,180k.been searching for about an hour about torque bind and cant seem to pinpoint my problem.all brand new tires same tread,air pressure etc.put the fuse in,no problems,take it out,turn left and right,get the feeling of an old 4wd truck in low range,more so to the left.the awd does work when it is needed,get a little clunk but after that nothing even in a turn with the awd spinning.i am not getting a code on the dash at all.have replaced the filter and done the drain and fill method about 6-8 months ago,replaced with synthetic fluid.diff levels are good and were filled/changed at the same time as the flush.getting a little aggrivated at this car,love it,just hate sinking money in it only to discover that wasnt the problem or it is another problem!!!any info would be helpful with this before i pull my hair completly out!!! i have only posted once before,but got good info,hoping to get the same results again!!! hoping this isnt the $800-$1000 problem i have been reading about!!i am mech. inclinded to do most of the work myself,but as posted before,the whole electric testing and wiring stuff,a little shakey!! thanks!

Gloyale Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 If you are getting torque bind, but no code, you likely have sticking clutches. Replacing the clutches can be done trans in car, for about $150 in parts. CLutches themselves can be found very cheap actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
