Grand Cherokee 2006 Laredo Transmission issue

Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked by Sheeyla on December 31, 2020

I have a 2006 Grand Cherokee Laredo with issues with the transmission. It was working perfect and with no issues and after one day, I started the car and shifter is moving ok and selecting the right gear on the dashboard, but the car does not move. I thought it could be the cold weather but nothing changed after leaving the engine on for almost an hour… I checked the oil and its level is ok and visually looks ok. What it could be? Car is not showing any sign of anything else malfunctioning, or any noise prior to this.

Just to leave it clear.. Engine revs up, the shifter moves ok and the dashboard shows the correct selection, but the transmission feels like it is just in parked, no change in the acceleration or noise that lets you know that the gear has engaged… nothing!

One Answer

Replace the filter. Be very careful with the O-ring around the pickup tube. If you are sucking in air, you will not be moving. A lot of transmission shops refuse to even open the pan because the liability, insist that they change the filters and the seal.

When you are under there, you can visually inspect the pan. If nothing is in the pan, the transmission is probably mechanically OK. Your only other option then is the valve body (see Ebay and buy another one).
