It does that to me, but not all the time. If I click last page from my subscriptions to get in here, it takes forever then loads the first page. But everything else is fast

Happy Monday

I hit up the casino this weekend and played the slots for the first time. I was out $60 when the night was done but I had a good time either way.

This was recommended by the shop who rebuilt my transmission. Not sure how you feel about aftermarket fluids in your tranny but if its on its way out anyways it won't hurt

It's one game.

I'll reserve judgment as to how good he is at the halfway point of the season. I think he'll have a couple of stinkers just because the QB position in the NFL is so hard.

I've asked 2 or 3 megas.. I wouldn't dare ask Ron A for something so meager. He'd punch me through my screen for wasting his time, wad up my electronic inbox and shove it up my butt.

Ron A doesn't drive a van.


He drives an AZ-logoed Pagani Zonda.

I timed my fill up to be when my car read zero today. Didn't actually make it to zero, but it was like the tail end of 1km. Anyway, I fill up and I only got 52.5 litres in before the pump clicked. I look online and apparently it has a 64.7 litre tank. A whole 12.2 litres left, that's enough for me to get another 110ish km or 70 miles. I knew there was some leeway, but not this much.

That's it for my experiment.

You might as well be measuring in furlongs and steres because I have no idea what you just said.

It says the pm sent , usually if it wont go thru, it tells me. Anyway, here is some info.......

During normal (babying) driving it seems to do fine. If I floor it to pass somebody however, it revs the motor up for a second or two before actually increasing speed hope that makes sense.
Two days ago, I needed to move the car from one side of the garage to the other, so I started it up and immediately put it in drive. It took a few seconds before it would actually coast forward, then I put it into reverse, and it actually clunked.
I've never heard it make any noise that loud. I'm hoping it was just because it was cold.

I've done a 1x3 with redline racing (type F) and I have D4 which just arrived today. My question is, should I even bother doing a 2x3 using the D4, or is the damage already done and it won't make a difference?
I planned on doing the pressure switches and filter during my 3x3, if the 2x3 is worth a try, should I just do them then instead? Car has 59800 miles.

What do you think?

I received your PM, but I can't reply unless I delete it. Like I said.. it's more than likely a fluid issue. When did it start occurring? Before the type F or after? If after, how many miles? There's a strong chance we can save it, at least long enough for you to save for a rebuild.

Also, check the ATF level.. let the car run to op temp on a flat surface. Turn it off and check the stick, wipe and check, within 1 min.

When you check the fluid level, also check on top and bottom of the case for any fluid / signs of seal issues.
