OK so I took my trany out and took it all apart replaced the parts I needed to and put it back together as best as I could.... with help from many manuals and a guide that I found on here! well now its back together and I put the shifter on it before I filled it up with trans fluid and I'm having a really hard time moving between gears and sometimes I can't even get it to go into some of the gears I don't know what to do I don't want to take it in! And I would appriciate not having bashing on this subject!~

Thanks in advance!

Try unplugging all of the selonoids on the side of the trans. Then try shifting it. If it works better you have a selonoids plugged in wrong. Did you try bench shifting it before you put it in the car? That is always a good way of telling if there is an issue. Check the sensors and let us know.

Thanks,

Got it it was the 5/6 gear wasn't seated correctly!!! so I broke it down and built it back up 4 times total and then finaly when I put the case on the last time everything was perfect! oh and its still out of the car! tested it on the bench and its working great! just need to fill it with fluid and go! does Mobil 1 ATF Full synthetic sound like good fluid? Cause thats what I bought! Oh and I have never done anything rebuilding wise and I have to say it was pretty damn easy! with the help of the information on this site I would recomend rebuilding them your self or atleast trying! But I still hope it shifts well when it gets in the car! I'm putting a Centerforce Dual Friction in there and I replaced the slave cylinder how do I bleed that system? I'm going to do a search for it and I should come up with something! I'll keep you posted on how things are working!

That's cool you figured it out!

What manuals exactly did you use, and do you have a link to the threads you used?

Thanks. We understand some customers do not have the option of sending it to us. These can be costly and sometimes funds are just not there. We do encourge on replacing certain parts if you do it yourself. That is one reason we have the self help and try to answer all questions when customers call or email us. We have an article on the T56 coming out in GMHT very soon that will help answer some questions.

Thanks,
Amber
