4L85E Transmission w/Hard 1-2 Shift
#1
![Question](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
All,
I have a 4L85E Transmission and it has been having hard 1-2 shifts . . . seems like it lags a touch (like its thinking about shifting) and then there's a big "bang" when it hits 2nd gear. The other shifts seem fine.
Any suggestions or am I in for a big $2k plus bill on this one?
Thank you,
Todd

Sounds like there could be too much clearance in the intermediate clutch pack. It could also be excessive line pressure, but because you mentioned a "lag" that is not likely.
