Re: Tranny slips out of 5th gear...
Its caused by a worn out 5th gear, boosting , accelerating alot in 5th gear. its weak. Its easy to replace without taking the transmission appart.

Thank you, thats exactly when it pops out. Under acceleration or load on sloping freeways. I'll look into the replacement and thank you again!

Is it only 5th gear? I thought this was also caused by dangerously low tranny fluid?
