Sounds bad to me man. Fix or replace.

Did you check your fluid to see if there is any in there ?

Check your fluid to see if it is low. Also smell it, if it smells funny it’s more than likely burnt and needs changed along with a new filter. If that does not fix the problem you need to rebuild your tranny. Good luck.

muzzy he said T-5. It isn't a automatic. Pull trans out then have a look see inside.

Guys , come on, checking fluid at this point is pointless, bubba is right, pull the tranny.... the damage is done, heck tonight I hammered mine in second and just before I went to shift to third at close to 7k I heard a bang and the car nosed over , now like the op I lost all gears and it bangs internally, now do you think I'm gonna bother checking fluid....nope, but hey I sure had fun racing the supercharged cobra, or at least I did until my tranny went kaboom!!!!

Thanx Bubba I did not see that........

how much torque can the T5 handle before i need something better?
