| Six months after purchasing a 92 probe v6 with 59,000 miles on it i had transmission trouble. the transmission began slipping one week when i was traveling to school and when i came home that weekend it wouldn't shift into any gear. after letting it sit i was able to bring it home, although it shifted rough from neutral to 1st and to second, then wouldn't shift into third at all. i had to use manual shift mode to keep it from shifting into third. while changing transmission fluid it we noticed a burnt oil smell to it. changing the fluid had little effect. the worst thing is that i was also looking at a 91 grand am 4 cyl for $200 less. *tr | |||
