Thank you so much for all of your very detailed help! When you get the flush procedures posted that will be my first step. Again thank you for taking the time to do all of this for me and others in the community.
Hey,
I have a 1997 FJ80 that runs and drives great except one issue. When shifting from 1st to 2nd it shifts really hard. Everything else seems fine. Does not slip or anything.
I have read change fluid and filter but also read change shift solenoids. Would love to get some feedback please.
Good morning,
My 1997 FZJ80 has an issue where when I put it into gear it shifts hard and going from first to second it shifts hard. This only happens about 25% of the time. The transmission works great outside of these hard shifts occasionally. I was considering replacing the shift solenoids...
My 80 when I accelerate from a stop I get a slight knocking noise from the 4wd high/low shifter. If only happens for a few seconds and at low RPM. It’s for sure coming from the shifter. I can feel it. Just not sure why. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
