Re: 2001 p71 slipping

It probably needs the trans, replaced. Even though there's a lot of old fluid in there, the main cause when it's the fluid is the filter. So if the fluid and filter were changed it should have stopped the shudder and still have a lot of old fluid left.

Just for your information, I think the 2001 was the last year that a drain plug was in the torque convertor to allow it to drain. When that's drained too, it takes about 10½ qts of fluid.
