I think my stock trans has finally given out. The trans is stock original 53k miles except for (external trans cooler, 3200 stall, shift kit). I've had the car for 16 months now and have gradually added power and should be in the high 11 sec range now. I recently noticed a slip shifting into 3rd at wot and added 1/2qt fluid and it seemed to be fixed. Then today on a wot blast I suddenly saw crazy knock in 3rd gear, 14.5 kr I believe, just before that the trans seemed to be shifting late and hard as if the tv cable was too tight. Of course I let out immediately and checked the scanmaster, numbers look fine. Pulling away from the next stop light the trans is suddenly slipping in first. Feels like I'm driving with the parking brake on. I get home and check the fluid level and it's clean and 1/2 qt over full, no leaks. Anyway, is she done for or is there an outside possibility that I have another problem? I knew this day was coming.
