Shifting hard in low and mid gear
The shifting hard is happening around 20 mph and then again 30 mph. Similar to a hiccup or hesitation to get into gear.
Unfortunately, there was nothing like this happening prior to the air/fuel sensors being replaced in both Bank1 and Bank2
there is nothing else going on with the transmission then this and once we are over the 30 mph it runs fine!
Hope somebody has a reason of why, as nobody seems to have it here in our area! 1400.00 later

Check your plug coils while the engine is on and check individually by removing the wire lock on the side of the plug coils and see the difference in the engine sputter, the one which you pull the coil wires and the engine idle power does not react, maybe that's the coil to replace. But ideally all six replacement is the best bet. Does not cost much on ebay.

Same problem going on...
Hi Lexmex,
Basically, my transmission acts strange after warming up the vehicle which the author (bchehab) of this post is experiencing. I am experiencing some shift delay from gear 1 to 2 and then gear 2 to 3. Every time when the vehicle shifts gear (both automatic and manual), the transmission does not shift immediately. It will keep in the original gear for 1-2 second before shifting to another gear, i.e. the dash board shows "2" in transmission, but actually the transmission is still at "1", and 1-2 second later, it will shift to "2". However, no hesitation when shifting from gear 3 to 4.
Once, when I have a full stop and shift to "R", the gear does not engaged immediately. It needs 1-2 seconds before the transmission shift gear to "R".
No CEL comes up. No pending code in ECU.
I have pulled the EFI fuse (20A) out for 5 minutes. I have had a "drain and fill" transmission oil changed 2 weeks ago after I have experienced the problem. The fluid level is normal and pink in color.

I have a 98 lexus gs400. And im having the same problem with my car. But when it finally grabs the first gear it gives a hard kick...i have no idea what it could be...any ideas
