Just noticed that between 1-10 there is a grinding noise from the front left and when staring or coming to a stop the tanny misses or shifts hard. Any ideas. 1998 Contour SE Panasonic CQ-DFX683 Sound by Crystal Mobile & Illusion Audio Powered by Alpine MRP-F240, Alpine MRP-M350 My Ride

Hard shifting... that would be possible sticking or leaking valve in the valve body. Is the tranny shot? Yeah, in so many words. Sounds like it is time for a rebuild... quick!!
