The main shift band sounds suspect..the C4 is really different from the AOD, th TV rod is actually just a kickdown rod, to downshift when you gas it. You could completely disconnect it, and it would have no effect on how the tranny runs, other than it would not downshift when you gas it.
You can actually adjust the bands on the C4....but if it is acting that badly, it might be time for a rebuild....the C4's are pretty cheap, though. It is also real easy to modify it while it is out..."H" shift servo, Trans-Go makes an evil HP shift kit for it....(I built a C4 for my brother's F-150, and I set the shift firmness on "kill"...after I installed the tranny, he had his former girlfriend in the truck, he floored it, and on the 1-2 shift, her head bounced off of the back glass...the relationship ended that day...lol....

i also forgot to mention that the shifting is fucked too...i dont feel the car shift into second just, 1st to 3rd and when it shifts in the next gear, its so slugish till you get up to 40km/h.Leave a comment:

jus did a oil and filter change on it cuz, the gasket was leaking.Leave a comment:

how is the fluid level? condition of the fluid? it is a good idea to drop the pan and change the filter if it's been a while and replace the modulator too.......then u have a full tranny tune up
there are also some external adjustments on a c4.......you'll have to check a service manual to find out which one is which tho

trans prob
this is for my 2dr with the C-4 tranny. when in D, and you get on the gas, it shudders and makes a bad noise but, when in 1, you can put the pedal to the medle and the car will get up and go! is this a torque converter prob or modulator valve prob?
