transmissions problem

[Mendez_89]

hey guys just bought myself a 1st gen teg really love the car. but ive been having problems with the car lately. when I drive it from fresh start it shifts fine but as I drive it and warms up it doenst want to shift up into 3r it will stay suck like at 2k 2 1/2 k rpm. I was thinking it might be the solenoid but I thought I would ask here and see what you guys say thanks for the help anyone

Sounds like the plates might be warped and will actually seperate when everything is warmed up. Take it in and get a new clutch

Yea.... I'm gonna assume he's talking about an auto. So if it's not shifting into third you may not be getting enough pressure through the valve body. First thing it needs is to drain all the fluid out and put a new filter in it. If it's easy to clean the screen out I would do that to, just make sure you put it back correctly.

My bad guys yeah its an auto. Yesterday I noticed that the connector that coneects to solenoid they were both ripped off so I just took from the junk yard and taped it and drove it but still did the same thing. So I need to but the trans filter for it?

Ok so ima be more clear. The car is automatic recently o changed the alternator on it because car would turn off when disconnect the battery now that problem is gone but it still does same thing. The check engine is still on when I drive It good for a while and it will start to do what I stated above. When I turn off the car amd turn it back on it goes back to normal and then it will start to do the same thing. I notice that the previous owner changed the crankshaft positioning sensor on the car because old part was in the trunk some information would help guys I would rather do the wprk on my car then having to take it to a shop. Thanks
