I did a complete fluid change thanks to the members post but still need help because this problem still continues. Thanks.

Sounds like the transmission may just need to be rebuilt... what kind of fluid did you use?

I took the advice of the members of lexux club and used toyota t-4. But i belive that your right, i think i do need to rebuilt my transmission. Do you know what kind of kit i may need? Thanks for getting back to me.

If you don't know exactly what you need to rebuild an auto transmission, chances are it is not something you can do on your own... Plain and simple, there are way too many specifications and tolerances that have to be near perfect in order to make the whole thing work... more importantly than that, identifying the actual problems is the hard part and that takes experience...
