So the sunfire tranny is going out. that sucks. alot. getting the tranny flushed and stuff tomarrow. good thing the civic is going back to stock sunday. but hopefully the sunfire is fine. It just makes the whining sound in 1st. Never had a problem with the 700r4 in the trans am or the auto in my old corsica.
Last time I had this much fun some furniture got broken!

I had a cavalier (same as sunfire) and the tranny has got to be one of the worst i've seen in a long time! Mine went out of the blue one day and i was never that bad on it

Repped for that man!
hahahahaah thats awsome!
My sister has a cavalier... and her tranny started making a squeal shifting from first to second, got it flushed, and it went away...
Good luck, hopefully its not fried! (But they're a dime a dozen in the junk yards)

maybe i should've finished. make auto illegal, and require potential drivers to complete a REAL driving course, no dmv crap where you drive around the block. too many people here dont even know basic rules of the road.
