coolant low warning on dash. coolant was full. road test and suspect transmission cause of surging rpm cruising, in gear until lock up engages, more noticeable though is the transmission is whining bearing gear type noise. drone noise coming from rear of vehicle intermittently sounds like an exhaust drone not diagnosed.

Will Transmissions act different after repairs? Yes. Not always but in many cases when a transmission is rebuilt there are changes made in areas like the valve body, separator plates, accumulators, valves and more. These changes are generically called shift kits/shift enhancements. It is typically an updated flow to shift circuits or improved hydraulic clutch apply, hydraulic line pressure changes to increase flow and lubrication to components. Later model vehicles have computer adaptations that also relate to transmission shifting patterns. Rebuilt Overhauled and/or repaired transmissions require the removal and disassembly of the transmission in its entirety. The transmission is inspected for wear and damage, and then it is cleaned in a special cleaning solution, or replaced with another part depending on its condition. Most Parts that have friction surfaces, such as bands and clutches, are replaced as are seals and gaskets. -The torque converter is also replaced, usually with a re-manufactured one. It is well to know that your transmission generally still has the original design and components engineered at the manufacturer. While intentions are to produce a problem free transmission some manufacturer side issues cannot be overcome, foreseen, or prevented as these situations or conditions are simply at design level. Transmissions are overhauled with an overhaul kit. The main transmission stays the same, hard parts can still fail. We recommend replacing the transmission filter (if applicable) and fluid every 30,000 miles. 15,000 miles if towing or heavy usage. Heat normal wear material and moisture can cause unwanted transmission problems. Do not tow within the first 500 miles after a transmission repair. Computer controlled transmissions need learn time by driving them from cold to full operating temperature multiple times. Tualatin Transmission warrants to the purchaser that we will repair or replace, at its sole option, units that Tualatin Transmission determines to be defective in materials or workmanship for a period of 2 years or 24,000 miles from the original date of sale. Vehicles modified outside of specifications or otherwise found to have other cause failures are void of warranty. Warranty concerns shall be addressed by calling 503-691-1555. The Tualatin Transmission reserves the right to request a copy of the original install repair order before a warranty claim is authorized. All warranty claims must have approval from Management before any warranty work is performed. No repair or replacement will extend the warranty beyond the original period. Any type of Failures must be returned to our facility for inspection. Failure to do so will result in a denied warranty claim. Labor warranty coverage requires that the transmission is repaired at our facility. The warranty does not cover: Towing charges, diagnostic time without prior approval, fluids, vehicle rental, transportation charges, loss of time, loss of income, loss of use of the vehicle, storage fees, or consequential, special, punitive or incidental damages. Other exclusions may apply. If failure was caused by abuse, misuse, lack of maintenance, neglect, overloading, accidents, vandalism or any other condition not covered by this warranty, warranty will be denied. It is drivers responsibility to protect the vehicle and components shall any issues arise. THIS WARRANTY SUPERSEDES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, AND THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION CONTAINED HEREIN.
