Now, greyghost....

You're not suggesting that there is some maggot type low-lifes that would just post stupid kinds of "stuff" on forums just because they have a less than adequate life. You mean just because they have nothing in their life worth any value, they would post a thread just to cause discussion and cause aggrevation over a vehicle (in this case) the are jealous off or can't afford.

Naw, I don't think so......

Been there and done that !!!!

While trying to find info on a shifter for the auto, I found a site that talked about this transmission being prone to fluid leaks. It appears this design has been in use for a few years and is a german design. So I'm thinking Snoopy is probably right, there is likely a TSB on this issue.

Here's the TSB for the transmission leak......

Thanx, Snoop, chain drive?????Wonder what the life of that is???I know,...... chains have been used for years in trannies, engines, transfer boxes......

That TSB is a general one for specific transmissions and does not include our trans. The HHR uses the 4T45 trans. I am a new owner and also parts manager at a Chevy dealership.

ebengle.....

My mistake. Thanks for that.

Welcome to the forum and "stick around". You probably can correct a lot of stuff on here.

Thanks, I prefer to lurk, but I'll post occasionally.

All right, GreyGhost. Yeah, I'm new to this forum and yeah I posted a problem only to see if any other HHR lover had trany issues. I'm not one of those wanna bees. I thought since you guys site on this site that there was some real knowledge to be found by submitting a problem and getting a bonified helpful response. I guess you really don't have anything better to do than sit around and b*%** about other people and their really issues.

True problem exists. Nothing I did or the way I drive my car. Just a bad trany. New one being installed tomorrow. No thanks for your help. Skeptic!!!

Good luck.
