1991 XJ 2dr 4x4 4.0L 5spd. I changed the transmission fluid. Looked like GL5 was in it before. Came out pretty clean not dirty or anything. No metal from what i could see. I changed the fluid to RP synthetic 10w30 as recommended to do so. While the car is cold is shifts good, but after a little bit it tends to not shift on random occasions. It goesn't go into gear and then i'll end up being stuck in a high gear. Mainly happens to downshifts from like 3-2, but then i wont be able to go into any gear but maybe the last gear i was in. Also almost everytime i shift to reverse it makes a grinding noise that sounds almost like a fart. This happens almost everytime and is very annoying. I bought the car 2 weeks ago and it didnt do this for the first week of ownership. I hope the tranny is good. I showed me mechanic the reverse making noise and he said its probably a master or slave cylinder issue. The clutch fluid is filled all the way. What do you guys think the problem may be or recommend me to do?
thanks!
