I hate vehicles.
I concur, vehicles are the worst.
Recently had to get the transmission rebuilt in my vehicle with less than 100k miles on because the torque converter failed and took gears three and five with it.
Not that this is a repair forum but what is it doing?
No power starting from a stop. Takes like 60 seconds to get up to 50km/h. Without getting too exciting here, it has a background of electrical problems. We have a pretty great transmission shop near where I’m located, so hopefully another kick at the can and they can solve it, because it’s out of my league to fix myself at this point.
The transmission on my car has been slipping at low speeds now for years. It would be expensive to fix and I just don’t care that much. So what if I can’t accelerate quickly from a stop? The car still gets me around.
Send it.
And never, ever change that transmission fluid. That grit is the only thing engaging your gears at this point. Run it until it pops, then go get another one. Transmissions are cheaper than a loan.
