Hi all,
Having a problem with my cruze. It has almost 150,000 miles on it now,automatic trans. When starting out, itgets going just fine, but as soon as it gets further up into the gears, the rpm’sjust jump up and I have no power. Theproblem seems to start in 4[SUP]th[/SUP] gear. I can manually shift it till then and then once it gets under any loadin 4[SUP]th[/SUP] gear the rpm’s just jump up and I have no power. 5[SUP]th[/SUP] and 6[SUP]th[/SUP] gear,nothing at all. This seems like thetrans is shot, but I wanted to throw this out to the community to give meanything else to check, or do I just need to bite the bullet and put a newtrans in? Although I didn’t check thetrans fluid the proper way, I was able to thread a zip tie down into the transand tell that there is definitely fluid in there, so I don’t think it is low onfluid, plus I have not noticed any signs of leakage. Let me know if there are any questions, and Ireally appreciate any thoughts or advice.
