I should maybe add that the noises have been reduced by taking it very easy on the throttle but also by starting out in 3 and getting up to at least 50 before shifting to D. If I start in D it's way easier to make the clacking. Also, as I found from driving into the ramps when I checked for leaks after the filter/fluid change, it will make the clacking in D 1 and 3 when accelerating, even just to get up on the ramps.

Found the re-manufactured transmission for $1,490.00 free shipping, no core upfront, 3 year unlimited miles warranty, ships with fluid and numerous updates from street smart transmissions. Of course if it's a solenoid I'm sure that'll be less expensive. Now I'm waiting patiently for you guys to weigh in. I know we haven't talked in a while. I'm going to button this van back up and wait for your email notification. Thank you all so much for your help. I would be up a creek without you. I'm telling everyone who will listen about how great and fast y'all are. It's really incredible and way more than I could have expected.

I would probably opt for the reman unit because it has the warranty. Plus doing a rebuild isn't bad on some units but unless you have practice and the resources for all of the things to test and measure it is easy to miss that one part that makes it work!

Alright then Mr Steve. It'll be a little bit before I get to buy the unit so I'll sit tight until then and keep an eye out in case one of you guys comes up with an epiphany of some quick and easy thing that might be the cause. (Wishful thinking, I know) otherwise I'll pop back in to say it's finished. I really appreciate all of the help. Y'all take care.

With the low pressures and the noises I would say it has to come out and be gone through to find the failure point. Since it is out and apart you wouldn't put it back together with all of the worn parts anyway. So now you have a rebuilt unit without any upgraded parts. Or you can opt for the fully rebuilt unit, with the updates and a warranty. It will save time as well because you don't really know what surprises are inside the current transmission. That means you can drop out the old one, check the engines rear main seal or any other items that are easy to access while it's apart. Then bolt the new one in. The normal rebuild time at my local shop runs about 3 days if they don't need extra parts.

As for us, we will be waiting. Please drop back when you have an update. Thank you for using 2CarPros.
