I own a 96 ex with a Automatic transmission,

recently my engine gave up on the freeway and some how destroyed itself. The motor was a JDM f22 that was recently installed in the Bay area and purchased from EngineworldUsa in Emeryville.

Luckily the motor was under warrenty and it was replaced. I also had decided to replace the transmission as well. It was slipping, had over 240k, leaked all over, and had a busted shift solenoid.

So in goes a "new" jdm tranny with supposedly under 50k on it, as well as a new motor.

Driving home from the shop everything seemed fine, got on the highway...no problems.

When i got off the highway and on city streets i came to stop at a light. Light turns green, press gas....tranny slips, lets motor rev to 4000 rpm as the car slowly crawls out of the intersection.

as i get up to speed, i shift it around the gears, floor it, cruise...seems normal.

As i slow down again for a light, and take off...the transmission slips once again

what is wrong? Was there something wrong with the install?

Help!! i need to drive to work and I can't...im losing money on this car and not having a car.

I have no other choice but to fix the car.

THANKS

 

check the fluid level and do it quick before it burns

 

Fluid level, checkthe cooling lines. I had to change my automatic tranny and turns out the replacement tranny's cooling lines were pinched. I'm guessing your cooling lines might be pinched and therefore overheating the fluid making your tranny slip.

 

did a brief and quick check of the fluid and lines. Fluid seems odd...white residue on the transmission dipstick...also the fluid seems to be overfilled.

The lines dont seem to be kinked at all, but it was dark i will have to check during the daytime.

I test drove the car, and i couldn't get it do repeat the slipping. odd

 

Oh yea just want to further emphasize, the metal cooling lines that are attached to the tranny. Not just the rubber ones.
