2000 jeep cherokee sport has some transmission slippage, does not come out of gear.

At a constant speed, it will slow a little and rpms will increase a little. this is on backroads and highways. started to notice w/in last 2-3 weeks. No indicator lights on dash. No leaks. 115,000 miles. Had a rebuilt motor from gearhead.com put in at 86,000 miles. Is a 'Slow Flush' w/filter change recommended?

Once the ****** slips and assuming the fluid is full it will need to removed from the truck and rebuilt. Sorry.

SOURCE: Transmission problem

Hi renjay, is your jeep trans an AW-4 or a 46RH? The simple things to check here without getting to the internals are as follows; check your oil level,filter etc. check the throttle linkage adjustment,check the trans shift adjustment also have the TCM tested, the TCM (transmission control module) used with the AW-4 has a self diagnostic program compatible with the DRB II scan tool.The tester will identify faults in the electrical control system it will help determine if the problem is electrical or mechanical, after this it tends to become internal and we can adress that issue if it arises,hope this helps,good luck and let me know how you make out or drop me a line if you have any questions,take care

The miss,does not just come and go,if it is a engine valve,replace the coil and boot,go from there,if this does not solve the problem,then the injector is gone out,or going out.If it is a engine valve,the miss would never get better,then worse,it would be the same all the time,get him to run a air compression test,get the valves up(close)and see if any air is detected threw the exhaust,or the intake,it will be present if the valve is the problem.

What are the symptoms of a speed sensor going bad on a 1997 jeep grand cherokee laredo 6 cyl.

Since alot of things rely on data from the speed sensor you will "usually" get an ABS alarm, little or no shifting,no indication of speed on the speedometer, and the check engine light. without the abs light and with a speed indicated I would lean toward a transmission problem

Sounds like you need to replace the clutch if the rpm's increase alot and the speed increases a small amount the clutch is starting to have excess slippage. If you go to Autozone web site and search a bit you should be able to find the needed type of transmission fluid and quanity needed.

1999 jeep grand cherokee tacometer reading???

Cruising rpm even after the OD has engaged has a lot to do with the differential gear ratio and tire size.
There will always be a variation between different vehichles due to that alone.
To see if the OD is working, at about 50mph, lightly touch the brake pedal. If the rpms increase for a moment then the OD was engaged. (touching the pedal momentarily disengages it...good thing to know when hill climbing!

Transmission slipping. does not appear to be shifting properly. replaced ecm. got tcm from jeep grand cherokee same engine (4.7L). notice significant burning/smoke after driving exhaust manifold. not...

U are going to need to overhaul the transmission here, the smoke is the trans overheating from excessive slippage i suspect.code for wrong gear ratio's mean the input and output shaft speed are out of symc for the gear the trans is in, the 3rd or 4th gear is the usual codes, this sometimes is caused by defective speed sensors but most times the trans is slipping and the TCM detects that and sets a code
