Every morning my car warms up for about 15min. As i pull away from the drive way and get into second gear my trans will make a grinding/slipping sound that seem'* to come for the front drivers side. Once it as shifted once into second i will never make that sound agian until the next moring. It does not happen all the time. I may to it every day for a week and not do it agian for 2. It is messed up and i was hoping that some one would help me figure this problem out. Also i have only heard this sound when i am just taking off slow as possible. I have changed trans fluid and filter and car is a 94 and only has 65,000 on it. PLEASE HELP and give any suggestions.

Thanks, Ryan

I have an idea. Disable your ABS by disconnecting it at the PMV assembly or pulling a fuse.

See if it still makes the noise

Hee, hee, ye olde ABS self test at 14 mph.

Got another one! Give us feedback when you get this done

For the past two day i have drove it with the fuse out and i have not heard that sound agian so i am hoping that was the problem. Thank for your help.

Now that I'm listening for it, I hear it too -- don't recall it ever being that noticeable before. Is the sound an indication of a problem? Or does it just mean I need new brake pads?

It'* not a problem at all. It'* normal.

What years do this? I never hear it on my 99.

At least through 95. Your car uses engine timing retard rather than applied braking for traction control.

It kicks the ABS on first, I can hear it.
