Car Forum / Oldsmobile Cars / May 200897 Silhouette
I have a 97 Olds Silhouette. The other day when backing out of the garage, I put it in reverse and it didn't seem to engage, I then put it in neutral and then drive and it wouldn't engage. I put it in park for a bit and back in reverse, still would not engage, I gave it some gas and the it made a loud clunck and engaged all at once. It has done this for the past few days now, but only when cold, doesn't do it through the day after driving for a while. Any ideas? Check your transmission fluid level. >I have a 97 Olds Silhouette.

Any ideas? Fluid level was fine but looked brown instead of red so I decided to a fluid/filter change. There was some metal chunks in the bottom of the pan and everything was covered with a black like film. I am hoping the drain valve was just gummed up, allowing the torque converter fluid to drain out overnight, since it would only happen in the morning. That combined with a dirty filter and fluid, maybe its fixed. Kinda concerned with the metal chunks though!?! > Check your transmission fluid level. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >>days now, but only when cold, doesn't do it through the day after driving >>for a while.
