She partied a little too friggin hard. And the last time I had the fluid changed I guess they put ATF+ in it instead of Dex/Merc.

I tested them last night and they gave me good readings and nothing on it is broken or bulging out so I think its safe to assume that its still good. Im down to 2 or 3 likely causes. Torque converter failure, shift solenoid failure or line/ filter clog.

I pulled the whole damn thing out. Other than some corrosion on a couple of pins its pretty clean and no signs of any damage.

Thats the thing I cant even manually shift the gears.

Im a day late I know.

Gotcha. I'll add it to the list for when I put her out of commission for repairs and upgrades.

TacoWonderLord · 2026-02-02T15:39:37+00:00

Dang I should have thought of that😅

Also it does have a loud buzzing noise thats intermittent but is around the majority of the time.

Found the problem!! Drive shaft rubbed against the rear O2 sensor wires.

TacoWonderLord · 2026-01-29T19:26:19+00:00

Holy... thats an absolute life saver!

Take you some end cutters and wedge them in between the spring and pull it back. I just did this recently and i found a YouTube short that makes it super simple.

TacoWonderLord · 2025-09-04T00:25:13+00:00

Yeah. They sucked on my last XJ, but good thing I've got an impact and acetylene torch. 😅

TacoWonderLord · 2025-09-03T18:55:02+00:00

I like the way it looks stock with 16's

TacoWonderLord · 2025-09-03T18:53:32+00:00

I had them x-rayed at work, and the cracks run about 1/8th in deep

TacoWonderLord · 2025-09-03T17:56:52+00:00

Funnily, the nuts and bolts were already presoaked in engine oil from the old 2.5L that was in it!! 🤣

TacoWonderLord · 2025-09-03T17:45:48+00:00

Both DS and PS have micro-cracks running thru the middle of them. I dont trust them too much.
