My 97 Z28 has an automatic transmission shifter which shows: 2nd-drive-overdrive(d with a circle around it). I have a parts car(a 94)that has the shifter as:1st-2nd-drive-overdrive. I also had a 2000 z28 parts car that had the same 1st-2nd-drive-overdrive setup. Also, all the photos i have seen for this transmission show them with 1st gear. Why is my 97 shifter different? Does it not have a 1st gear or what?
It has second gear start. To activate and provide extra traction when pulling out of snow and muddy ground. z28 have positive traction rears.

first of all you need to fix the motor mounts drive shaft hangers and the lower control arm bushings and if you still have a transmission problem . it is in the valve body in the transmission you need to bring it to a good transmission shopas this will be a major tranny overhaul

when it jerks does the check engine light come on? If so find a reputable transmission shop and it is a simple fix. Costed me $88

The fluild is suspect as is the compiter controls. Is the check engine lite on ? A bad TPS or air flow meter even if still working can command out of lock up. The fluild is at the right level and is halfway clean? The trans overheating now or in the past can have runied the lockup solinoid or the lock up clutch in the converter. Tranny shops like to rebuild the whole tranny every car as they know thats going to get it and they make more money and have less headaces with broken cars and mad customers. I f the control system cks OK Have your best guess local trusted tranny shop test drive the car and then listen to him say what hes going to do to fix it what hes going to charge and what'll happen if you don't fix it and drive around it. He may say he'll change just the touque converter and cross your fingers that it doesnt **** out too soon
