Default No 4th gear

My tranny is officially out. Its got no 4th gear and the other gears don't shift like they should. I have to let completely out of the throttle, then they might shift. Also its leaking fluid(but still enough to where that wouldn't be the problem). Which the fluid gets on the exhaust and that creates smoke. So is it salvageable at all? Or do any of you guys have a lt1 4l60e to sell?

Make sure your trans is full of oil. Running it low is not a good idea. This might be the reason why it is damaged or acting the way it is. If it is full then I believe a replacement might be in your future. Are you getting any transmission related codes?

no transmition codes, and I checked the fluid and it wasn't too low enough to the point where that could be it.

The trans is probably just tired from the sounds of it, Sounds like you need a trans, Feel free to give me a call if you would like to discuss
