Constant 2004R issues.

[HighMileage]

About 10 yrs ago I bought a built 2004R from one of the well known transmission gods (will remain nameless) because I didn’t want to blow my orig transmission up. The transmission he sold me lasted 50 miles. 1-2 shift and R is all it had. He walked me though steps to try and fix it. He ended up sending me a replacement unit after a wait which lasted months.

Unit #2: ..2015 or so…. There is an intermittent buzzing in Park with this replacement unit. I had to change out the governor to get the transmission to work correctly. I believe I had to take the one out of my stock unit.

Unit 2 today: ,2,000 miles later and haven’t been down the 1/4mi yet. Trans has 1-2 and starts off in 2 unless I go to N at a stop. Fluid looks new. TV adj correctly.

It’s been 10 yrs so getting on the phone with this guy is useless. …IF you can get him on the phone. It was tough 10 yrs ago.

I’m at my wits end at this point.

Hi Steve, Dave Husek did mine, you are welcome to test drive it. It is awesome. It is tough to drop that kind of coin and have it not work, but if you give it to Dave it will turn out right. Plus Dave always picks up the phone or promptly returns your call.

At this point you might want to send the car to a pro like Dave etc so they can go through it while in the car and make it right, then send you it all back 100% approved.

I forgot if Dave H was in NY or FL now or a combo of both at times, I talked to him last year.

Believe his home base/shop is on the Island of Long.

Just went for another drive. My test road is around and around the uptown state campus and 85 down to Slingerlands and back to the campus. 1-2-3-4 but no lockup. All seemed ok. Then only 1-2-3.
Now on the way home only 1-2 with up shift from 1-2 at 3,000rpm light throttle.

Transmission problems are the best,I’ll tell ya
