What’s the Importance of Your 2001 Wrangler’s Transmission?

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Jeep Wrangler transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Jeep Wrangler transmission trouble you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your Wrangler at all.

2001 Jeep Wrangler Questions & Answers
