1993 Pontiac Grand Am Repair Question
Mileage: No information provided.
93 with the 3.3 Tranny problems
The car has about 150k miles on it, nothing has ever been serviced except the ECM and the Rear Right Wheel Cylinder.
I have recently had the ECM replaced, and from my understanding , my specific transmission does not have any electrical parts in it short of the Lock up Switch.
Thanks in advance.

Answer
Not a good sign. No service in 150,000 miles...

Original filter and fluid...Tranny is probably shot.
The filter geting plugged will prevent circulaton. IMHO, The fluid properties when dimisnished will not cool or lubricate adequetly.
I'm sure there has been some sort of other servicing to the car, None go that far without it.
Well, we have had the car since it was brand new. Its had usuall maintence like plugs wires things like that. The Wheel Cylinder and ECM was the biggest thing really. The fluid sadly has never been changed and I assumed that the non changing it fried the whole transmission really. The fluid is darker than the motor oil in the engine .
Thanks for your input. I just now have to deciede if the transmission is worth getting fixed or getting rid of it.
The car certainly doesn't owe you anyhting. May want to consider a used transmission. Hard to say when the car is on the brink of major expenses or not. Almost always it's cheaper to do reapirs than replace.
Yeah Ill look into a used one today. Thanks a lot for your help man. have a good weekend.
