Default Shift Problem ??

Ok My 2nd And 3rd Gear Do Not Engage Properly!!! The Car Was Shifting Fine Before I Took It To Vavoline For A Oil Change. Could It Be They Drained My Fluid In My Tranny? The Car Has 130,000 Should I Add Fluid Or Change It?

I would change your fluid and probably get your transmission checked. The bolt to drain the tranny fluid is not even close to the bolt to drain the oil, so who knows what happened there.

Not to be mean, but if you can change your tranny fluid, why didn't you change your oil?

Hope you didn't go to Jiffy lube, I've heard horror stories of that place.

We get cars in from places like jiffy lube and walmart with stripped out drain plugs and pans. 30ftlbs, not 100! Inexperienced people or people who left one loose and are now paranoid overtightening drain plugs is far too common.
