Re: 95 Bonneville transmission acting up
No slipping. Before I figured out I could downshift it I tried putting it in Neutral before it would have a chance to downshift into low gear on its own. Then while stopped, or slowly rolling, it seemed like it stayed in Neutral after shifting back into gear until I revved it up just a little, then ...

Re: 95 Bonneville transmission acting up
I drove it about a 150 mile round trip yesterday because it was mostly highway and minimal possibilities of having to stop and start. I found that if I downshift it manually, then when stopped, shift back up to OD, it only makes a little clunk between one of the gears when upshifting while stopped ...

95 Bonneville transmission acting up
95 Bonneville transmission issues! Had my trans rebuilt about 9 months ago cause the reaction drum failed finally at way over 200k miles. Sometimes since then it seems to take a little longer than normal for reverse to engage after shifting into reverse, but never really an issue.

Re: New harmonic balancer installed-now low rpm vibration!
Since the installation of the 2nd ATP brand balancer, of which I still had the very noticeable vibration at idle and still detectable at low rpm/speed, the car also developed the familiar bucking symptoms associated with bad ignition wires and/or plugs.

Split from: Transmission shudders at 50mph
I experienced the low rpm in overdrive shudder when going up hill in my 95 Bonneville. Replaced ignition wires and it went away. Since then I've replaced plugs & wires a few months ago and now I'm experiencing a low rpm shudder in OD again occasionally. Can't imagine it being the wires again already.

Re: New harmonic balancer installed-now low rpm vibration!
My 95 is a VIN K car so a balancer for a 95 thru 99 should work I would think. I ordered a cheaper one off ebay that is a different brand so I'll see how that pans out later this week and post results.

Re: New harmonic balancer installed-now low rpm vibration!
Just installed another identical balancer, same brand, same low rpm vibe, though a wee bit different now. If you just barely hit the throttle you can really feel it right before it comes back down to idle.
Hmmmm, it never had this before, I suppose it could be one of the motor mounts on that side ...

New harmonic balancer installed-now low rpm vibration!
Just installed a new ATP brand harmonic balancer on my 95 Bonneville SE. As soon as I started it up a couple days ago after the installation there is a very noticeable vibration at idle and lower rpm range.

Re: Used or new parts? Poll
I just got 3 alternators from the Indianapolis pull-a-part yard this week. One appears to be a fairly fresh reman. unit. I ran it a couple days just to test it.
Got a stack of ignition modules this year too after my original failed on one coil.
Some stuff I've bought new, like a lifetime warranty ...

Re: How many miles do u have on your cars?
My 95 Bonneville base model has just over 239k on it today. I bought it from a friend in Feb. 2011. Excellent running car and always gets 24 to 28 mpg depending on trip/road conditions. Its a 100 mile round trip on a normal workday.
