My uplander transmission has stopped working in D and 3, but it works in R, 1 and 2.

I asked my mechanic to flush the oil to see if that fixes the problem. He opened up the pan and found a small part in it. I have attached the pictures. What piece is that? He claims that I need to replace the transmission.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

 

looks like the end of broke band.

 

Thanks for the response. Any way to fix it without replacing/rebuilding the transmission?

 

yup broken band and no the only way to properly fix it would be completely disassemble and inspect everything and rebuild or replace

 

Instead of rebuilding the old transmission it's cheaper to replace it with a good used one.
