Hello all I'm back again with another issue. I am beginning to think I'm losing my reverse gear (auto trans). When I shift into reverse my car will hesitate in reverse no matter if it's a cold start or not. It's nothing super bad right now but a problem in the works. All other gears are fine also. I've searched around on here and have found no solid answer to my situation. I did have the trans cooler fail last year causing intermixed fluids so that could play a part in this. But does anyone have an idea if I'm losing reverse?

If you had the mix a year ago and did not remove all the coolant from the tranny 2-3 changes of fluid I would quickly try another tranny fluid and filter change and that might save you're reverse.

Coolant will delaminate the clutch discs.

Cadillac flushed all fluids and replaced the trans filter as well with a new radiator. The fluid sat for 1 night mixed then was drained the next day and flushed throughly so they say.
