All 5 gears work fine just bought it cant find reverce goes in like 4 th gear
Check your owners manual for the correct shift pastern...It is a natural H pattern, with 5th gear upper right...reverse should be all the way to the right and lower right to engage...the knob does not always indicate the correct pattern...may have been changed...also be sure it is a 5 speed...most of these Cavaliers were 4 speeds...with reverse being upper right instead of 5th gear upper right...confirm in your owners manual if possible...will show illustration...Hope this helps.

If trans fluid is full, it's shot. You could remove pan and check to see if filter is blocked but if fluid smells burned and there is a lot of debris in pan, don't bother with it...just get another one!

1st check tranny fluid level if good tranny needs to be rebuilt it will go into failsafe mode when the computer sences to much slippage

Your clutch may not be releasing all the way. Could be low fluid in the clutch master cylinder. If it shifts OK when the engine is off, but hard when the engine is running, this is probably the cause. Hope this helps!

Before guessing at transmission problems, check the fluid level (car
warmed up, engine running in Park on level ground) and have the PCM
scanned for trouble codes FIRST.
Also note that many problems that show up as transmission issues are
actually PCM or electrical, and may be external to the transmission.
Secondly, put a line pressure gauge ($55 shipped on Ebay, or visit a
local trans shop) on the pressure test port and go for a drive to
verify proper line pressure. Base pressure at idle in P,N,OD should be
around 70psi and around 140psi in R. Max line pressure should be at
least 190psi at WOT in 1st or 2nd, 225psi is optimum. If base pressure
is low, trans or pump is worn out. If max pressure is low, check EPC
solenoid. If reverse is slow to engage, and line pressure does not come
up to at least 130psi in reverse, replace the boost valve with a
Transgo 0.500" boost valve (easy fix in pan).
1-2 shift does not happen at WOT until you let off the gas: Best case:
try replacing the TPS. Middle case: leak in the 2nd gear apply circuit
(servo assembly or 1-2 accumulator). Double check by using the pressure
gauge and watch for a big drop when the PCM commands 2nd gear. Worst
case: poor line pressure rise.
1-2 Shift shudder at WOT; delayed or abnormal 1-2 shift; There's a problem ONLY on the 1-2 shift:
1-2 accumulator piston cracked or stuck cocked in the bore. Check the
yellow spring inside the accumulator housing for breakage. Also, if the
accumulator housing walls are scored, the housing must be replaced.
Easy fix in the pan.
1-2 shift is delayed and harsh, may not shift into OD: Check TPS for smooth and linear electrical response over the entire range of motion. If not, replace.
Soft shifting, gradual performance degradation: Poor line
pressure rise due to leaking boost valve, clogged EPC filter screen,
failing EPC solenoid, or worst case: leaky seals throughout. Transgo
HD2-C kit fixes first two without removing trans. Seal restorer may fix
last problem, but probably R&R. Also try a transmission flush with
BG brand products (Firestone stocks it).
Here are the common things that may be happening to your transmission to what you have described. As for your transmission fluid being burn, that is a sign that your transmission is slipping. Your going to have to service the transmission again fluid and filter changed. Since your doing that you may want to replace the boost valve and shift servo. I did mine on my 4L60E and have over 365,000 miles so far, replacing the boost valve every 60,000 mile and it's only $45.00 and take less the 5 min to replace and the servo is around the same price. I did do the upgrade and have the corvette boost valve and servo in my transmission which helps a lot. The other thing to is B&M has a electronic shift controlled modulator you can install your self which would give you 3 settings and works great with the upgrades mentioned above.
Good luck and hope this helps, keep me posted and try not to run the transmission too long with the burnt and dirty fluid. The dirt in the fluid will cause the electronic pressure control (EPC) valve to fail and will end up causing a $2,300.00 total transmission rebuilt over a simple $190.00 up grade and maintenance.

You may have several different things going on here...
1.) When was the last time you had the transmission lubrication level checked... make sure you have lube in the trans
2.) Check your trans speed sensor and you vehicle speed sensor, they may need replacing
3.) Have a tune-up and have your engine sensors checked, a bad MAP or O2 sensor can cause poor performance. Good luck...
