Yeah that's a great point, and I think that's the direction I'm heading. It's really not too bad when you understand it. I may relocated the VSVs and sensors that were on the crossover pipe, and cut new vacuum line and clean things up that way.
Interesting. I think that's the sub, or was...
Hey all,
I have been getting a lot of buzzing/rattling from my 4WD transfer case shifter when under load.
The problem was intermittent before, and I ended up installing the Wits End transfer case refresh kit (80 Series 1FZ Transfer and Transmission Shifter Rebuild Kit -...
I took it for a test drive this weekend. It started off fairly normal. When I was going around 40mph I punched the pedal to the metal to see what would happen. The rpm jumped up, but the transmission didn't respond. It then started slipping. I pulled over and couldn't progress (in forward...
Do a search here for "transmission" and "buzz" This is a "common" noise and I'm not sure anyone has exactly pinpointed it. Some have stated a trans rebuild, others live with it and drive it tens of thousands of miles...
the 1fz makes peak torque at 3200rpm so holding 3000rpm on a highway cruise in top gear is perfect, especially when talking about a heavy rig at a mile above sea level. If the NVH gets to you then get a better resonator/muffler set up.
My 89' 320i with an S52 and ZF 5HP 18 5-speed...
I have a strange buzzing sound coming from underneath. I'm guessing it's coming from the transmission. It only makes the sound once warmed up and only when in gear at an idle or low RPM. If I put it in park or neutral or just give a little gas while in gear it goes away. I've crawled underneath...
1. Whine in 1st gear. My 91 FJ80 had this since I drove it off the dealer's lot in 1991. Your transmission is fine. Do regular passive drain/refills once in a while.
2. Driveline buzz when coasting at highway speeds is a sign of worn slip yolks on one of the drive shafts. There should be ZERO...
The previous owner had the trans replaced “due to front pump failure” with a unit that had “4K miles since rebuild” and included a new torque converter and the rear main seal.
Having access to a full auto shop I’m sure helps but how many:banana: we talking about here for an install? I’ve never...
You had a shop replace the transmission previously, right?
This buzzing started.
Did the shop pull / replace the trans? It's possible they didn't get the torque converter seated properly, then tightened the bell housing and encountered severe interference, possibly damaging the pump.
I had a...
I Would almost like to have the shop try SOMETHING before committing to $2500, but they didn't take long to throw the replace card out there. The trans does have a warranty which they said they would honor, if they got to work on it. That shop is in Texas and I'm in MD. So if anyone in Texas...
That is the exact same symptoms mine had just before the end. Would start to loose gear and eventually would stay in neutral. I was able to limp it home by shutting off the engine and restarting. There was about a 10 second window where it would grab a gear and let me idle along.
I still have...
I just had this problem recently. I believe it was a shift solenoid but I opted to replace the entire trans since I needed to hit the rear main anyways and a used trans was cheap enough it made sense.
I have a thread on it somewhere with a video detailing the noise. It got progressively worse...
When I overhauled mine, I measured the gear and used a similar size hole saw in a piece of pine scrap. I then sawed the scrap in half on the table saw. I bracketed each side around the gear with the semi-circles in the wood and used a couple of clamps to hold it while I buzzed it off with the...
...from PO. Bright red and correct level.
Noise is still present after driving at operating temp for a long duration.
Videos of the "transmission buzzing"
First thing I did was a trans flush followed by a Blackstone analysis on the fluid. Everything came back okay. I continued to drive the...
Howdy Folks,
Well I think my transmission has died, but I wanted to get a few educated MUD opinions before moving forward with a replacement. I will try to include as much info as possible below and would highly appreciate all your input.

Evening folks,
I have a 1997 with 177k. After a recent trip of about 2000 miles I noticed a noise that I finally narrowed down to the transmission bell housing.
It is best described as a metal on metal buzz. Based on my forum digging I have narrowed it down to a few options and hopefully...
Dan I am very impressed that you can tell it's 93-94 just by the sound, I hope to see you at Cruise Moab again. I'm actually hoping to go to the Land Cruiser Museum just before I head over to cruise Moab.
