Hi everyone,
Quick rundown on what I'm wheeling:
2013 Wrangler Sport 2Dr 3.6L Auto - Stock save for some aftermarket bumpers and coils from a 4dr Rubi
Issue at hand:
Trans will not shift from second into third and has no selectable function. Also lurches into reverse from park and into drive from neutral.
Few weeks ago I had P0743 TCC code come up. I did some digging and found that the most common problem is the TTC solenoid. I have 137K km on my Jeep and was planning on doing the trans filter and oil change pretty soon anyways, so kind of good timing. When I dropped the pan on the trans the oil that came out was burnt smelling and the magnet in the pan was pretty caked in goop (no large pieces or flakes, just goop). So I purchased a solenoid from the dealership and installed it into the valve body. Reassembled with a fresh filter and some new ATF 4. Took it out for a test spin and still will not shift from second into third.
I talked to several people and a few service departments and was told the following:
Clutches inside could be seized
Valve body could be shot
Torque Converter needs a rebuild
I also seen on a few forums before I got into the repair that people with similar issues had replaced the solenoid and solved the issue and others ended up replacing the torque converter and TC/Trans all together.
So I'm curious if anyone else has had the same or similar issues and what path they went. I'm not about to let a dealership or shop charge me out the wazoo in labour time for this as I can handle the repairs myself. Just looking for some advice on where I should be heading next. At this point the trans is coming out and getting benched so I can start dealing with this.
Thanks for any feedback,
