'95 Legacy-no reverse; need new tranny?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

New to the forum....My 104K mile subie goes forward fine, but reverse is the same as Neutral. This occurred after a tranny flush- Reverse worked for a couple days, but is completey gone now. It either worked or not at all...there isn't/wasn't any slipping.

 

I've read posts about no reverse causes: control valve, solenoid. After having 2 diagnoses - independent and AAMCO- told basically the same thing: rebuild time. The indie shop said they could repair the "drum (?)" for $975- rebuild (includes TC) is $1500. AAMCO wants $1800 to start...rebuild would obviously be even more.

 

Thanks for all the info on this site.

Yeah.....you pretty much need a new tranny. You may want to look at trying to get a low mileage tranny. It may be cheaper then having it rebuilt.

 

If you decide to have it rebuilt I'd stay away from AAMCO. I haven't heard anything good about them. You may want to ask around on the board as well other people in your area for a good trans shop.
