if something came apart would it be fine one day and act up the next? or would it be messed up 100% ? thr it was like no problem i cuold shift it my self from 1st to drive then hit the over drive button, everythings good, i put it in drive it shifts good and hard still chirpping the tires from gear to gear, and i have reverse and 1st no problems, and no noise. but when i have the problem theres the noise, i pull it back to 1st won't move and i put it in reverse won't move , from drivewhen the car starts to move in 1st the noise is there it shifts to 2nd noise is gone. and if i rev it up in reverse or 1st it will fill like it might be slipping then grabs so hard it spins the tires. right now it is working fine, i just don't get it.... THANKS for everyones feed back if i find anything out ill let you know,and ill post what if any changes happen after i change the fluid. thanks again everyone. jeff
