: Limping?

03 D/A Edge with Attitude on 5 and straightpipe. When powerbraking to leave a 150 footer, it seems to "power out", roll 4 inches and then resume the burnout. No SES light and I dont think its overboosting. It just noses over, then regains itself and then goes. Ive only tried this a couple of times but it doesnt seem right- it also makes it appear as a manual trans car dumped the clutch in first then shifted to second. Is this just the way it is or does something need to be changed?

Sounds like it's defueling on the 1-2 shift.

I used to powerbrake a lot until Mike L. told me it was real hard on the tranny:eek:

Powerbraking too?

LOL

C1's Hatin Life too then!

Go Back and have Mike put some 'extras' in the trans that will hold up to those shenanigans!

Sooner would be better than later. It seems that when C1 andC2 go out, the failure on those directly affect the longevity of the other clutch packs.

If c-1s and 2's go bye bye the rest of the clutch packs aint going to matter. Roasty toasty nice and crispy! At least you will have park and nutral though so you wont be totaly SOL):h

Is it doing this durring a shift? probably defueling
