I dont know much about transmissions. I realize this may be hard to diagnose over the internet. Just trying to figure out where to start.
2000 Jeep Wrangler
Transmission NV 3550
A few weeks ago when shifting into 3rd gear it would grind a little until warmed up.
A week ago it would grind hard going into 2nd gear and sometimes not engage at all.
Two days ago while wheeling/driving I shifted into 2nd gear and it stuck there. The shifter would move from 2nd gear into neutral and left to right but would not shift through the pattern except for 2nd gear.
I drove it to my buddies house and had it towed home tonight.
I managed to get it out of 2nd gear by trying to shift it into first gear.
Now I can shift through the pattern and the gears engage. Except for 2nd gear. It grinds going into 2nd gear and will not seat or engage. If I mess with it enough I can get it to engage 2nd gear.
Master cylinder is full of fluid. No leaks.
I have read the NV3550 has common issues with 2nd gear.
Where do I start? Anyone else go through this?
Anyone swap a AW4 in place of one yet? I have a good AW4 laying around.
