1993 Chrysler New Yorker Problems

Incorrect, worn, or contaminated automatic transmission fluid can cause shifting issues, noted mostly at speeds over 40mph.

Automatic transmissions can exhibit a variety of shifting and noise concerns due to failure of internal components.

Various driveability issues may be the result of low fuel pressure due to a failed check valve inside the fuel pump.

A high pitched whistle type noise may be noted from the engine at idle.

A hard or no start condition may be noted in low ambient temperatures which can be caused by corrosion at the engine coolant temperature sensor.

A faulty transaxle input speed sensor can cause the automatic transmission to default into a "limp-in" mode.

Carbon buildup on the top of the piston is common.

On higher mileage vehicles timing cover oil and coolant leaks, front crankshaft oil seal leaks, and valve cover gasket leaks are common.

A rattle may be noted from the rear brakes when driving on rough roads.

The connector on the input and/or output speed sensors on the automatic transmission may become damaged causing intermittent loss of speed control.

A slight engine knocking noise may be noted on light acceleration after a cold start.

The fuel gauge may read empty when the fuel tank is full.

The brake lights may stay on and the cruise control may not function due to the brake pedal not returning to its fully released position.
