Buddies tranny is acting up, any help? My buddies story:
98 Firebird v6 swapped a ls1 and 4l60e in. This car has given him problems overtime. Lots of leaks, squeaks, etc. Lately his tranny has been acting up. Overdrive only works "sometimes" but only when its cold. After that, it doesn't work anymore. 1st, 2nd and 3rd work fine. Tranny fluid is at the proper level. One of my buddies installed the tranny for him. Is there something that wasn't set up properly when he put it in? The tranny is supposed to have good parts in it, and he got it from a member on this board. Can anyone shed some light to my buddy? Thanks for any help.
If anyone needs anymore info, just let me know and I'll relay it. He currently doesn't have a computer.

I would scan for codes first and go from there.
