Stage pistons may be going bad. They can be replaced in car depending. If replacing fluid and stage pistons don't help then full rebuild is required.

duck tape on the air intake. I just fixed mine. There is a crack on the intake that lets too much air in when you put it in drive that makes the car stall. Try it it works.

SOURCE: Delay in shift from park to drive or reverse

Check your trans fluid after letting the car run for around 10 minutes or so. Leave the engine running when checking fluid level. If it is low add a little at the time if it is high you are going to need to remove some fluid you can do this with a small sy-fin down the dip stick. Also inspect the fluid and smell it also. If it smells burnt and is brownish or black looking I am sorry to say it may be time to start looking for a new or rebuilt transmission. Good Luck. I hope it is something to do withthe fluid. Let me know what you find.

SOURCE: 1995 camero z28. Transmission changes all gear

It sounds like there is an issue with either the shift cable or either the parking paw inside the transmission. You should be able to take to a local transmission shop for a quick diagnosis.

SOURCE: 1995 Mercedes S500 coupe. When put in reverse,

I would check the fluid level first and then take to the transmission shop (avoid franchises) to get a diagnostic. You might have to have it rebuilt ($ 1,500.00 to $ 2,000.00). I paid $1,500.00 for mine.

I have a 95 chevrolet caverlier and when I put it in drive or reverse it takes a few seconds to respond it's like it's slippin

Check the level of your tranmission fluid.
I had a slipper a couple years ago, and Lucas oil has a bottle of lubricant that helps stop the slip. It worked for me.

1995 Mercedes S500 coupe. When put in reverse, takes a while (few seconds) to get in gear, then I can back up. When I put in drive and any other gear.. there are no issues.

1995 Mercedes S500 coupe. When put in reverse,

Modulator or stage pistons are going out. You can try replacing the pistons as they are cheap and can be done without removing the transmission. Head to benzworld.org or peachparts.come for more help.

My 1997 Honda Civic has a few seconds delay engaging into Reverse. Forward gears have no problems but when i put it in "R" it takes like 5 seconds before engaging. Fluid level is ok.

Basically you should have the vehicle's reverse circuit pressure tested by a certified ASE Transmission Repair Shop.They will be able to tell you if there is a blockage in the cricuit, reverse shift solenoid is on its way out ,or a gearing problem even if there is a manual shift valve issue. Good luck

Help... My four wheel drive High or Low will not engage on my 1995 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition. This is engaged "on the fly". The light comes on indicating they are engaged but they it is not.

Try at full stop in neutral switching to 4 wheel auto ,give it a few seconds and if you don,t here it engage try putting it into reverse and then back into neutral and then into drive. If still dosen,t work tranny switch is likely sticking . service or repair.

94' jeep grand cherokee trans. delays in reverse

Hi ray_c_brown, This pause is determined by a time lag test, and you can check this yourself with a stop watch.Engagement time in "D" range should be a maximum of 1.2 seconds and the engagement time for reverse should be a maximum of 1.5 seconds. So with your vehicle warmed up and assuming curb idle speed is correct set the park brake,make sure ac is off (air cond) shift transfer case to 2H or if it is a NP249 transfer case leave in 4H,put your vehicle into neutral and set your stop watch shift to Drive and record time repeat this a couple of times and do the same with reverse,as you said the delay is with reverse so if it takes longer than 1.5 seconds here are a few things it could be:shift cable adjustment,low line pressure,worn direct clutch, first/reverse brake worn or a worn or damaged overdrive clutch.Hope this helps you good luck :)
