A/T tranny failure!
Just wanted to know if anyone has ever experienced this?
My A/T started grinding and slipping last night. I lost some hp and the car has become less responsive. The moment i shift to "D" the tranny starts vibrating and the grinding noise becomes louder. Starting from a dig feels like im driving my civic.
Prior to this, I had jerky shifting from 1-2 and delayed+slippery shifting from 3-4.
What do you think went wrong? is it just the clutch? did i break any gear?
This guy from a A/T specialty garage quoted me 1400 to 2700USD to get it overhauled. He will also upgrade all clutch which can handle turbo setups and offered me 3months warranty. Before i grab this offer, i would like to know what do you guys think...
thanks much!!!

thanks for the feedback guys!
this is what happend few months back - my radiator internals broke and the ATF and Coolant mixed together, made their way towards the tranny. I was cruising down a highway when this happend.... I started losing power and the Z just started to slow down.
By the time I found a proper parking, the gear was sounding like a supercharger. I took it to a garage to flush the whole system. After that, the tranny seemed ok. There must have been already damage and it just kept getting worse. . .
so basically it's just what u guys suspected - low on atf... you are right
could this have broken any gears? im hoping the tranny rebuild kit will fix this?
@ exZilaration - when you built your tranny did you have to do the full rebuilt kit? how much do these things really cost?
oh and BTW Entaille.. No. I don't own Lambo's and stuff.. i'm just one of those peasants who are trying to make a living in dubai.
