hey guys, i am new here. I drive a '91 Camaro RS with a 305 and an automatic transmission , I wanted a manual but I couldnt find any that were cheap enough. Anyway, the transmission likes to hold First for a ridiculously long time. Once it does shift to Second, its a really rough shift that chirps the tires. This occurs only occasionally, but it seems to be pretty consistent when its cold outside. ANy thoughts?
thanks

change fluid and filter, has there been a shift kit added?

tynyrhyno

How about the fluid and filter like Arch said?

i have a problem w/ my tranny to. and i have a 92 RS. sounds something just like yours. we're prob. just gonna buy a new tranny and sell it though. since we're moving. and i'll get another camaro by summer. prob. a 4th gen this time.

yeah i suppose i will try changing the fluid/filter and see if that does anything, otherwise there is talk around my house of a possible 5-speed swap into the car which would be dope. Intense? yes. BUT i dont really drive the car in the winter that much, and my dad is bored....so we'll see.
Totally unrelated note, ryann i love your car. I tried so hard to find a black one but i couldnt find any that were not too far away. What mods have you done?
