Car Forum / Oldsmobile Cars / May 20041999 Olds Intrigue - transmission problems
I have a '99 Olds Intrigue with 143000 miles on it. The transmission has started to slip when going from 2nd to 3rd gear. I have noticed the fluid is very dark. Do you think it's pretty much gone, or do you think flushing the system and replacing the filter will help out any? I think you have trouble. You can try to flush it since you have nothing to lose at this point. But I have seen transmissions die right after a flush many times. Does it have a service engine soon light?If so, there is a small chance that a trans selenoid could be the problem. You may have a code without the light on depending on the problem. > I have a '99 Olds Intrigue with 143000 miles on it. The transmission has > started to slip when going from 2nd to 3rd gear.

You could even have a code without the check engine lamp. It's worth scanning just to see. Even if you have to pay for the scan, a small repair is a lot better than tossing in the towel if you can get away with it. I figure you might spend $100 to $150 checking things and seeing if you can make the condition go away with a service. Pretty small compared to a reman trans.
