Hello. '97 Cherokee 4.0/NP242. 250,700 miles. Only problem...overdrive. Doesn't always go into OD. When it doesn't, I stop, shut it down, wait 15-20 seconds, restart, reverse a short distance and go. Then then OD works for a day or a month at random, no rhyme or reason. Also, when I am towing with a load, it shifts every time. The above "method" of the temporary "fix" was discovered by mistake, out of frustration.
Fluid full and clean, changed every 50,000.
When OD engages, it's solid.
Help. Any ideas? I hope it's not the torque converter.
My hope is that someone else has had this problem and can point me in the right direction.
Is there a pressure valve on the side of the transmission that could be bad?
Thank you.
