Default Tranny problem... Please help!

Hey, the weirdest thing just happened to me the other day, after coming back from school my teg seamed to have something wrong with it. Everytime I accelerate or even press the gas pedal it seams as if the front left tire isn't getting an equal amount of power or something because it slips and feels kind of wobbly, I checked it out and the tire is on nice and tight, axles seam to be ok, only thing left i'm thinking is something in the transmission, it's an automatic transmission btw. Also you can hear it in the revs it sounds weird, like wahh wahh wahh as it revs higher and as the left wheel seams sluggish and kinda shakes, and as soon as I let off the gas it seams just fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx

Sounds like a broken differential. You'll need to tear apart the trans to find out. Just had a similar problem in my MT and resulted in replacing the trans.

Good luck.

Thanks for the info. I was kinda thinking it was the differential too, just wanted someone elses oppinion on it... Anyone know if it's possible to buy a used differential and simply replace it... or should i have it replaced professionally. Thx

If you are gonna have it done professionally, might as well get a new (read: used) trans.

Costs are out of balance...
