ive been posting in the sonnx zip kit thread, but figured id bring my problem into my own thread.
My indy shop is suggesting that i have a bad clutch 2.
background...
I was getting a minor hard shift when cold, from 1-2
I rebuilt the valvebody with sonnax zip kit, new seals, new separator plate, new solenoids.
Truck now doesn't shift out of first. when letting off the gas, it engine brakes like no other. almost like slamming on the actual brakes. i also get mystery transmission fault on the dash, but no codes.
I had it towed to an indy shop. They say bad clutch 2. i told him i was surprised to hear that since the (big) issues didnt start until after i ****** with the valvebody. however, since the whole start of my project was a hard 1-2 shift, maybe i have compound problems, and clutch 2 was always my original problem of hard 1-2 shift?
currently authorized the shop for:
replace valve body. $2500
if that doesnt solve the problem, he told me he will rebuild the transmission for $5100, including a new valvebody. I will not be responsible for the original $2500 cost.
thoughts or opinions?
