Back from the dead! That's right...man did I have to dig for this thread but no, my tranny is still not OK! The truck is back at the dealership where they are trying to figure out why when you kick it down into passing gear it slips before grabbing around 63mph. Last time the technician admitted the whine it has was not right and when they rebuilt the tranny last time it seemed to get a little better. Well I brought up the whine when I took it in this time and I didn't get to ride with the tech this time. When I talked to the service department on the phone they said they are fixing the tranny but that whine is coming from the alternator which is making noise because of my aftermarket stereo. Well...1st of all the stereo was not and never had been in the truck when I first took it to the dealer for this problem. 2nd of all is the fact that all I have in there is an aftermarket head unit and new door speaker and tweeters run by two amplifiers. This is not some big *** bass system with huge woofers and what not killing the electrical system. Anyways, we will see how it goes. I am hoping they inadvertently fix the whine if and when they do fix the tranny because I believe that is where the noise is coming from.

 

All the shifts ? As my shift from 1st to 2nd is just fine, it's the 2nd to Drive shift that isn't happening.



By that, you mean it can be changed by just dropping the pan ?


As soon as the weather breaks, I was going to have the Blazer flat-beded back to where I bought it. They are already talking about swapping in another tranny. I don't know whether taking it to a transmission shop to have it diagnosed first would do any good, as I assume they are going to tell me it needs completely rebuilt. Where's their incentive to tell me, Oh it's a really simple easy cheap thing to fix ?
