Damn, I should only post when I can see the vehicle. Okay, I have been starting in 3 and then D at about 2500. I will be testing 1/2 and then D. I will let y'all know.

Using 2/3 to start off and then around 2500 rpms I shift to D It is doggy but I ain't racing. You think I should do L and then D?

I did this for over a year on a Suzuki Swift and all was good.

Another 400+ mile trip with about 800/1000 pounds of trailer and stuff. Transmission works great. I will get to the elec trouble shooting some day but I love what I have. Ecomike is the man. NAXJA rocks.

Ecomike What I watch is the highway speed/RPM but it is not all that important. The XJ is working just great as is and I have to fix some electric stuff and some of the plumbing. What kind of performance did you get with the diesel? Was is okay for a daily driver? Here is a fun link...

What version is your bluetooth scanner? Those that have V2.0 or V2.1 or higher do not always work on 96 vehicles. V1.xx will work fine.

Well, it went from 20 MPG to 24.8 MPG. My best guess is that I am hitting better shift points than the AW4 computer? That is just a wild @ss guess. Everything just seems so much stronger. My trips involve some serious big hills, really serious and the Cherokee just goes up real nice. The...

Labotomy results Thanks to Ecomike the now auto-manual AW4 is just fine. I pulled the fuse that powers the "computer" that talks with the transmission. After around 1000 miles of driving, 800 at highway speeds, all is perfect. THANKS Ecomike :thumbup: The biggest upside to this is 5 more MPG.

OOPS, #12 pulled! 10amp. Long walk from the driveway to the computer.

Ecomike #10 fuse pulled, Now we wait. This problem may occur the next time I get on the highway or in 400 miles or some other thing. Thanks for the link and thanks for the quick reply.

@smokeyyank Complete rebuild less than 1200 miles ago. Fluid is good, no leaks.

Could not find the huge transmission write up so here goes, please move to the right place. At highway speed the transmission just goes to something like a neutral mode, Stopping and shifting to any other gear does nothing. If I turn off the engine and restart everything is great, for days...

Did you make a movie of this rebuild? Was there a YouTube video how-to?

96 XJ is back home here in the Land of Enchantment. New Pump New TC all the other soft parts. I guess it was a complete rebuild? Plus some little things with engine, freeze plug, etc. Drove home smooth. Total cost>>>>> $1400 Got a nice discount for cash.

Ben824, Good job! Thanks for the update.

Ecomike, PENDING:dunno: The shop is really busy and this is very much mañana land. Please stay tuned.

Ben824, I gave up and sent my problem to a tranny shop. Hope you have better luck! If you want I have a PDF of the AW4 FSM; just pm me with an email and I will send it as an attachment. Here is a 34 page thread on the AW4. This is awesome to have all the info in one place...

Well, New NSS did not solve the problem. I have taken the Jeep to a Transmission Dude. I will here tomorrow what is wrong and how much $$$$ to fix. /sigh/

Ben824 Just found this: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1125276

That is just what mine is doing. I will keep watching this thread to see if you are luckier that I have been.
