[beanzfynest617]

well every morning I start my car 5-10 minutes before I'm about to leave.......so when my car is ready and all warmed up I get in my car and take off....... as soon as I give the car gas......the rev goes up but the car doesn't pick up speed........wat can it be........????

hoping it aint my tranny........

[90cb7tuner]

It might be the tranny! How high do u have to rev it up before it picks up speed??

[h22sparkle]

I think its your clutch its probably in need of replacement. 5speed or automatic?

[Fake Thug]

Engine speed increases but vehicle speed does not?....Clutch.

[drkshdw107]

sounds like a clutch to me

[drkshdw107]

but if its an automatic, you may want to check the fluid in your tranny and smell it....if it is black and nasty looking and smells burnt, you may want to look into buying a new one. you could change the fluid and hope for the best, but we need to know what trans you have first before anymore advice is given.

we need to know if its auto or 5 sp.

If 5 sp could be clutch, but usually you see graduall slipping untill it gets nothing(if its worn out) it could be throw out bearing

If Auto could be torque converter

I disagree...a throw out bearing isn't going to cause slipping.

[JohnD1079]

I disagree...a throw out bearing isn't going to cause slipping.

but it could cause the clutch to not engage

but it could cause the clutch to not engage

Yeah. I can't remember the internals exactly, but do you think its so cold that it is slow to engage at first?

To the OP, is it only at first or all the time?

Please learn to provide all relevant information, like what type of transaxle to get better answers. You only will get in return what you put in.

[beanzfynest617]

I have an automatic.....and idk wat type of tranny it is but I have a f22a with 175,xxx miles.....I'm guessing its the tranny.....

Torque converter is supposed to generate torque at take off. When you get up to speed its fine right? Only take off is a bitch like there is no power? You have any lights flashing?

[JohnD1079]

if its the torque converter, i got one for you. $15

Don't torque converters just allow constant movement from the crankshaft to become on and off movement of the tranny via fluid? Or do they also actually generate more torque during acceleration?
