The owners and service manuals say that the Impala should start in second gear while in the “2” position, but mine doesn . The service department says they all act that way. Whats the deal?
All ’94’s and some early ’95s came with the second gear start function built in. This has been verified. Sometime early in the ’95 production run, a new PCM calibration was issued that either disabled the 2nd gear start feature on accident or on purpose. Some have heard that it was because too many people where blowing transmissions by starting in 2nd with a trailer attached. Chevrolet is aware of this problem and has opened a file folder on it (number 960149175). Call 1-800-222-1020 for the latest scoop on the problem. Some list members are actively working to get this problem resolved as of March, 1996. Try calling Jeremy at extension 5138 for more information on the problem. Several of the aftermarket PCM reprogrammers can offer this feature on their programs. Back to the index…
