I'm having an issue with my 1993 Saturn SC2.
It drives fine for 5 minutes and then the transmission starts to slip run poorly. The temp gauge looks fine (not overheating).
If I let it cool down then it drives fine again for 5 minutes.
Anyone have a similar problem and solve it.
Thanks,
Bill
When was the last time you changed the transmission fluid? Ever? I'd try changing the fluid first. It's a 15 minute job on that car since there's a drain plug and a spin on external filter (like an oil filter).
Here's what I'd do...
Drain the fluid and change the filter. Refill with fresh fluid (which I believe is Dexron III). Drive it around for 20-30 minutes. Dump the fluid again and refill with clean fluid. Report back. :-)
