Hi All,
First post here. I just bought a used 91 Legacy last week for a work car.
Already I'm having a problem with the automatic transmission. At first I
noticed it was sluggish pulling out sometimes like it wasn't going down to
first gear. Not knowing the car well, I was 2nd guessing myslef as the
simptoms changed or came and went. Finally had some time to mess around
today. Was able to determine the approx gear ratio's by watching speedo and
tach. Then the problem showed up again and what I found out is that it
sticks in 3rd gear.Doesn't downshift and doesn't go into 4th on the highway.
I followed the user guide instructions for checking the tranny fluid level.
Hard to tell for sure, but looks like it is OK, or maybe overfilled. Any
ideas? How expensive of a problem might I have?
Very frustrating as I did not get a waranty with the car which has 88K miles
on it. Does anyone know if there is a lemon law in PA?
Thanks
Bill
